Happy Father's Day 2021: What does Bible say about Father's great love?'

Happy Father's Day 2021: Father's day is celebrated every year, in the month of June, 3rd Sunday. This year, it falls on 20th June. Every father plays significant role in a child's life. Many people tend to exchange cards, prepare hearty meals, bake cakes and even present flowers to their fathers as a symbol of their gratitude and love.

When we read the bible, we understand how heavenly father has loved the world, that he did not spare his only son, but gave him up for us all, hence surely he will give us good things

We may have heard many times, that God loves us, he is our father, his love is unconditional, no matter what. Not everyone is ready to accept it; a few may struggle to believe it because they might have a experienced negative relationship with their own father or sincerely disbelieve that someone might really love and care for them unconditionally, as the world is so selfish.
