If having an earthly father makes such a difference...

"In Australia I was speaking to a select group of leaders. Next to me sat the police chief of one of the cities. He has 18,000 law enforcement people working under him. He told me that in one of their communities 'Father's Day' was the saddest day of the year because 90 percent of the kids in that community don't know who their father is. Imagine that statistic! Is it any wonder those kids end up in places like Angola [maximum security prison in Louisiana]? Now here's the question: If having an earthly father makes such a difference in how we live our lives, is it any wonder that planet earth is a violent planet because most of us do not know who our Heavenly Father is?"
