Father

So, I have yet to see a father's day card that says something like " the best thing that I learned from you was to not end up like you". Ouch. Doesn't sound kind. What if it is true? Not all of us had a father that we trusted ,or one that valued us. Or if they did maybe they didn't show it. This is not about getting on the "poor me" train. If your father did not act like a father God knows. He knows why he allowed you to live that. Ask God how to respond to that now and know He can fill in any gaps in your life. He can be your father ,and give you new eyes to see your earthly father in a new way. Seek His wisdom, He is the only perfect father.

Proverbs 4:10 Listen, y son, accept what I say, and the years of your life will be many. I guide you in the way of wisdom and lead you along straight paths.


Father God,
Lord let us accept you as our perfect father. I pray that these EOD people see good the thier earthly fathers. Let them grow in forgiveness where you call them to do that. Let the EOD Dad's have a fathers' heart twards their children. Show them how to live out that very important role that You have called them to. We know that through you all things are possible. Give us your eyes for our Dad. I thank You Lord for being the ultimate father and never leaving or forsaking us. Help us to hear your wisdom.

In Jesus' name,
Amen
