When searching for a sermon text for Father's Day, it becomes painfully clear that there are few fathers in the Bible who are known for being good fathers. This lack of proper fathers is the single greatest need in American society, affecting millions of homes and countless children growing up without a godly father's influence. In Psalm 103, David highlights the action, heart, and mind of an amazing father, our heavenly father. God, because of his love and compassion, is an example of the type of father each of us would want as our own. Throughout the psalm, the example of God resonates with father's as a how-to guide to parenting. Not only biological fathers, but father figures and anyone and everyone trying to fill the void of a missing father, all would benefit from copying the attitude of God toward the wayward children of humanity. In the end, God earns the praise directed to him, and so will earthly fathers if they too learn from his love, compassion, and wisdom.
