How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are. 1 John 3:1

Thoughts of childhood live where they can easily be found. Memories flow when we remember our fathers. As the years go by, we treasure what is stored in our hearts. We remember them with love and welcome precious moments to remember... 

My dad is an incredible man of faith. He often reminds me and my sisters how very much we are loved. Distance won’t allow us to see one another today, but I will be grateful to hear his familiar voice when I call. And, I will thank God for the years we have had to celebrate this day. 

Many will not be able to hear the sound of their father’s voice. God knows how much they are missed. He sees inside the heart of those who rely on memories to sustain and cradles them in care. He provides peace for those who mourn and arms them with the love of His faithfulness. 

God reminds us we are loved by Him. We are His children. He takes good care of us. The Bible says, “May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word. “ Thessalonians 2:16 

God knows how it feels to love. Our heavenly Father longs for us to know Him as Lord of our lives. He blesses us in moments to feel His presence and guides us where we learn to appreciate the blessing of a grateful heart.

God, Thank you for fathers. We honor them with love and remember those who are no longer with us. Thank you for sweet, precious memories! Help us embrace a grateful heart for what we have been given and allow us to feel the power of Your presence in our lives. Help us find joy, as we remember those who have blessed us. And, remind us why we will never be without Your everlasting love. Amen
