Series on “The Father” by Fr. Mark-Mary Ames, CFR (Part 1)
How are you affected by the wounds you had from your earthly Father? St. Francis, a man who bore the wounds of his earthly Father, provides a powerful testament to how these wounds can become a gateway to the heart of God. His journey led him to embrace the heart of the Father through Jesus Christ, a path we can all follow. Let us not forget that Jesus is the bridge to the fatherhood of God. He stands between the Father and our wounds, eager to bring us into the presence of the Father, to save us, and to heal us from these wounds that we carry.
This episode is an invitation to hope that we can all experience the goodness of the fatherhood of God.
