It's our third Monday here in Koivumaki, and we have already started learning about how to connect with God. We learned about his attributes, then how to fear him. Now we are learning how to recognize him as our daddy (isi).
Last week Mirjam covered a lot on the Fear of the Lord, and gave us a great understanding of how large he is and how we tend to shrink him in our mind. She talked Thursday night, to the students and guests, about the prodigals son, and how both of the sons felt as if they were servants to their father. We often feel as if we are God's servant, when in truth we are his sons and daughters.
We had a great weekend. Including: ice skating, ice hockey, go karting on the ice and some time to relax and prepare ourself for week 3.
This week our guest is Topi Kivimaki. he started off the week giving us some great examples of how God loves us as his children, and we sometimes look at him like bigger than a father. We need to call him daddy as Jesus did in the new testament often.
We looked forward to the rest of the week with Topi and learning more about the Father Heart of God.
