I found this comforting describing God the Father as a lion: his power and strength that protects yet His tenderness with us His children. Thank you Julie.

Wow, so powerful! Love all the Christ connections! Reminds me of Aslan the Lion from the C.S. Lewis "Chronicles of Narnia."

I know, right! As I was musing after the vision, I was thinking of Lucy and Aslan. What a picture C.S. Lewis already created for us. He truly was touched by the Holy Spirit and brought that to us. I am very grateful for his close walk with the LION and for passing those insights on to us. Won't it be great to hear from him in Heaven?

Truly breathtaking! I mean that literally. The description of His power made me feel I was standing before Him, yet the description of His tenderness received a nod in my Spirit.

Thank you for sharing this in such a beautiful, and scriptural way!

Julie, your post is moving. Thank you for describing Father God in a way I never saw. It's beautifully written and inspiring. I can hardly wait to meet Father Yahweh, the Lion.
