For different reasons, many people live with a distorted view of God. Some see Him as a bitter, angry old man in the sky who draws pleasure from dishing out punishment. This God they envision is harsh and unkind, and His thoughts toward us are only framed by disappointment. Thankfully, the Bible paints a different picture of the one we call Father. God is a good Father because He is righteous in all His ways, and kind in all His works.
