The Everlasting Father

What grief a father’s death can cause! How we feel the loss of his transient guidance and provision! But the One born in Bethlehem was named “The Everlasting Father.” In His everlasting love, within His everlasting arms, within His Father’s heart which pitieth His own, we have safety, rest and comfort.

“The Father of Eternity” is given as the literal meaning of this expressive name. The attribute of everlastingness is His. He is from everlasting to everlasting and He permits us to share in His abiding and undecaying life.
