testimony by Whit Bass

 Recently while teaching a biblical foundations class at Project 41, I had the opportunity to minister to one of the young ladies who has been struggling with how she sees Father God. The young lady began to share with me how her father was a Vietnam veteran and how he was never really THERE for her as she grew up.  This unhealthy relationship between her and her Earthly Father has impacted her in how she sees Father God. I asked her, “How do you see Father God”?  She responded that she saw Father God in a distant manner. I told the young lady that we know that Father God loves you and that he is really not far away. Lets renounce the lie that Father God is distant and far away from you. We then prayed
 for her to forgive her earthly father for being distant and uninvolved  in her life. 
 
 Once she renounced the lie and forgave her earthly father, we then moved toward the next step. I said to her, ask Father God this question: “Father God, what is the truth about the lie that you are distant, uninvolved and far way from me?”  We waited quietly until Father God answered her question. Approximately 30 seconds to a minute later Father God answered her prayer. The young lady began to weep and sob.  She said, “I’m sitting in HIS lap. 
 HE is rocking me like a little girl.” I proceeded to tell her to press her head into HIS CHEST.  I then asked Father God to love on her and for MORE of HIS PRESENCE, LOVE AND GLORY to come over her.  Then she said, “I can feel HIS ROBE.  It’s very soft.”  At this point I just remained quiet and allowed her to have her moment with HEAVENLY FATHER. WOW!!! This was such an amazing moment for Father God to remove the lie that HE was far away. Father God did more in this one moment than what may have taken years of
 counseling.  Praise God!!!
