"KNOWING YOUR FATHER"

The son of a wealthy man expected to receive a sports car for his graduation.
Instead his day called him into his study, told him he loved him, and handed him a box.
When he opened it he found a leather-bound Bible with his name inscribed inside. Angrily he said, "With all your money, you give me a Bible!" and stormed out. They never spoke again.

Years later; he got a call to say his dad had died leaving him everything. Going through his father's things he found the Bible, still in its box.
Tearfully he noticed that his dad had underlined Matthew 7:11, "And if ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father...give...to them that ask him?"
As he read it, a car key fell from inside. It had a tag with the dealer's name on it-for the sports car he'd wanted years earlier! On the tag beside his graduation date were the words, "Paid in full-love, Dad." Our Heavenly Father knows what we need, when we're ready for it (which is more than most of us know), and how to get it to us. Listen, "I know what I'm doing. I have it all planned out-plans to take care of you...plans to give you the future you hope for...when you get serious about finding me and want it more than anything else, I'll make sure you won't be disappointed". Signed-"Your Heavenly Father."
