In today's Daily Reflection we explore the idea that true fatherhood reflects God's desire not just to give good gifts, but to offer the very best of himself. "In Matthew seven, Jesus says, Your Father who is in heaven, will give good gifts to those who ask him. And that's what dads want to do, to give good things. And it's what my dad wanted to do for me, and it's what I want to do for my boys to give them good things."But I don't want to just give good things. I want to give the best thing. That's what the father in heaven wants to do to."
