A Fathers Love



Greetings to all and may the words that are being spoken cause you to examine your heart.

A fathers love, what does it really mean? I fought with that because the only love I knew from a father was abusive. On father's day I find myself learning to redirect my thinking. This picture is real, it is of my friend who I call a real brother. I continue to look at how this was captured and what does it mean to me. I see one of the greatest needs in the world coming from this picture, I see REAL LOVE. I pondered and struggled with this fathers day for what I think should be in a father, in my world never existed, but then the Holy Spirit overtook me and I began to praise God all the more. He is my Father, my Heavenly Father, my Friend, my Rock the one I can truly depend on. I pray to all the father's around the world that you don't just be a father on father's day, but that you make it happen everyday. So many times we get caught up in the cult, the tradition of what is celerbrated and forget why we really had that special day. LOVE, the whole time it is all about LOVE.

John 3:16-17 For God so LOVED the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. ( AGAPE LOVE )

Bottom line folks some of us never seen the role of a positive father, some of us hate our earthly fathers, some of us have been hurt by what we called father. This is just the way it happens all around the world. But for me this verse was the true reminder, there is no greater love that the LOVE of our HEAVENLY FATHER. What God has done in my life by healing me from the hurt of one of the most celerbrated holidays, father's day, it He brought it alive he reminded me of His love, that unconditional love, that forgiving love that love that the world could never give for our earthly bodies can't live up to it no matter how much we try.

SO TO ALL OF YOU MEN WHO HAVE BEEN THAT MAN A FATHER DOING YOUR BEST FOR THAT SON OR DAUGHTER OR EVEN BEING A MENTOR MY HAT GOES OFF TO YOU AND MAY YOU REMEMBER THE BEST THING A FATHER CAN DO IS SHOW AGAPE LOVE, REAL LOVE. I thank my brother for allowing me to use his and his son's picture for he really does love his son and it shows even without the camera. I love you for being that man you are, thanks Soni you are my hero. Happy Father's day not for one day, but for everyday.
