<p>Many of us struggle with connecting to a loving father.  You may have had a wonderful father and are able to recognize the impact of his love and consistency in their life.  But sadly many become angry because of all the wounds that a father represents.  They have wounds from their father because of what he did or did not do.  These wounds prevent them from knowing their real Father &#8211; the one that <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%20139:13" target="_blank">knit them together in their mother&#8217;s womb</a> because of His passionate love and desire for them.  You are wanted and enjoyed by your Heavenly Father.  Below is a list of scripture in the form a letter to you.  Read and meditate on them.</p>
