 +Philip articulates this basic human desire. He is in a discussion with Jesus. He also indicates 
 +that knowing the eternal father is the main point for a human life. It is where you find peace. 
 +It is the point where you reach your goal. We are all created to live with him, with the 
 +eternal God and father!

 +Sometimes people analyse religion and they interpret the human desire for a heavenly
 +father as a projection of their elementary experiences when they were infants. And indeed, 
 +this relationship is very important and there is a lot you can compare. But the atheistic
 +logic comes to the wrong conclusions since they do not know God, the eternal father. Our
 +human fatherhood and motherhood is the projection, coming from the eternal God, the
 +creator, the beginning and the end!
 +
 +The good news: there is a heavenly father! God is there. And more good news: God loves
 +us as a true father and mother would do. He is interested in our life, in your life and
 +my life. He wants to live with us. He wants to go with us. He wants us to prosper, to
 +discover a fantastic world, to be free and full of love ourselves.  
  
 +The New Testament is called good news. In the heart of this good news is the fatherhood
 +of the eternal God, the motherhood of the creator. In Christ Jesus he rebuilds the 
 +bridges which humans have torn down, he confirms his care and his justice at the same
 +time. We are invited to discover this heavenly father ... what a story!
