A father was tucking in his six-year old in for the night. “Son,” he asked, “when does Daddy love you the most? When you’ve been fighting with your sister and getting into a lot of trouble? Or when you’ve been helpful to Mommy and being real nice to everyone?” |
“Right,” the father said, “and do you know why?”
“Cause I’m your special guy.” That was his daddy’s nickname for him: “Daddy’s Special Guy.” The boy knew his daddy loved him no matter what because he was Daddy’s special Guy.
God continually demonstrates His personal interest and love for us – simply because we are His children, His “special guys.”
