Happy Sunday! Dads are designed to be the protectors in our families--the ones who provide for and guide our families, the ones who keep us secure and safe. Sadly, many folks have never known an earthly father who has played this role for them. They have never known a dad who checked on the loud noise in the night, who wiped away their tears, who held their hand to cross the street. Thankfully, we have a Father who is here for us--to defend us, to lead us, to hold our hands and protect us. Take courage and BE encouraged knowing that your heavenly daddy is ALWAYS with you!
I was blessed with a loving, caring earthly father for 34 years. I think of him often, but especially on this day that we set aside for them. In church today our pastor did a special blessing over all the dad's. I am so thankful for my dad, but I am especially thankful for my heavenly Father who loves me & cares for me more than I can even comprehend.
ReplyDeleteI think about so many kids these days being raised without fathers--so hard on them. Sadly, I only had 22 years with my dad. But, so very thankful to have a relationship with my father in heaven!
