Do you think God wants less for his children than what you want for yours?
Most Christians think that God created man to be subservient to him. We are to love honor and most of all obey and serve his wants and needs forever as his heavenly children.
As a son, I strained to do better than my father. This came naturally and thus I think most people do the same. We all want our parents to be proud of us.
As a father myself, I want my children to do as well as I have and then do better than what I have done. That to me would be the ideal. That eventually places my children above me, --- where they belong. This is natural and desirable.
I would not force my children beneath me and would reject any God who would not have his children exceed whatever he is.
Do you want your children to exceed your achievements?
Let me assume that you would not hold your children back and do want then to exceed whatever you are.
Do you think God wants less for his children than what you want for yours?
