He was mostly scary. He could be very loving and kind, but he also had a bad temper and would deal out very harsh punishments (just like my dad did, strangely enough. Well, it&#8217;s not strange at all, really.) Children have a hard time picturing the abstract, so pictures and stories can help, but they only take us\u00a0so far. Spiritual growth and personal growth demand more.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-2595 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/a033_godblessingearth-jpg-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Here, just the Father's beard could wipe out planet Earth\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/a033_godblessingearth-jpg-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/a033_godblessingearth-jpg-200x200.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/a033_godblessingearth-jpg-100x100.jpeg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Today, I&#8217;ll talk about moving beyond how we tend, even as adults, to personify God much\u00a0like children do with rabbits in storybooks.<\/strong> <em>Please pass along the episode to someone else and chat about it with your friends.
