Our Father, our God

People may think that stay and keep control of their spiritual life during an entire existence. However, God the Father takes care of it and leads people through paths and ways they may never walk through if a decision should be made about it.

Our Father takes seriously the task to create, renovate or restore, generate, remake or alter sons and daughter lives according to their original potential designed by God Himself.

The expression "Our" Father says about an entirely new relationship with God, comments the Catechism of the Catholic Church, (CCC P. 668) and is a fulfillment of His promise of love and faithfulness to "His" people.

A new image of God as Father brought by Jesus unveils the news already announced by the prophets of the Old Testament about the loving God. It is a new connection with the divine, an affinity that makes people say "Our" Father ...", "God's people ...". It is the fulfilment sealed by Christ as a covenant that obligates us to respond in faithfulness and truth.
