I am happy to be spending Father’s Day this year with my son Rick. Due to distance and work-related issues, he will not be with his two daughters this Father’s Day. I thought it would mean a lot to him if I posted pictures of his two daughters. Angela and Rayna. He also has a step daughter, Amanda, whom I did not have a picture of. He and I, the grandmother, are proud of all these daughters. There has been some dark days in the past, but once a daughter, always a daughter. Love abides, even in the worse of times, for everybody. Rick has been a loving son to me, as well as a loving father to his girls. I am a highly blessed mother and grandmother. I feel as though God gave everyone of my children and grandchildren to me without holding anything back. “Thank you Heavenly Father, for them all.”
I want to send out happy “Father’s Day” wishes to my other son who is a great father also. And to my son-in-law, who fathered two wonderful sons. I also want to wish a happy Father’s Day to all fathers across the nation. Sometimes I think their important role in life has been over looked to a certain extent. After all, the male was created first, and God blessed him with a wife who bore him children. Hundreds of years of time has tried to change that creative image into a shameful and disgraceful idol. Much has been done to make this believable. A place is reserved to all who have had a part in that alteration process. My thoughts are going to those fathers who really deserve more than what they have been handed out, as well as those who are shown love and honor every day by those who believe in the power of man by means of their creation. I am thrilled to send out every father a happy Father’s Day blessing.
I will be celebrating Father’s Day with Rick tomorrow at church. All fathers will be honored there with a scrumptious meal after church services. A proud mother will be sitting at his side. He just recently handed me a beautiful bouquet of flowers for Mother’s Day. After church he took me out to eat. I can try and return the gesture of love in behalf of his daughters. I know they will appreciate that. I just believe a good father can never be over paid. In time they will be rewarded for all they have done for their children, even though some have not received proper rewarding on earth. God bless all children who have shown love to their fathers in a special way. I feel like I do not fit into that category myself. If it were to do over, I would show my father more love than I did while he was with me. Its too late now, and I feel the sorrow from my failure every day. Please take, and respect, your father more seriously.
God Bless
