What intrigues me about father’s day is that it is treated as a non-event. The reason for this is because there is not enough attention given to the fathers that took care of their families. I’m not down playing the reality that some fathers were not/are not involved in the lives of their children, but God did place a man or men in your life to assist you. I want us to celebrate these men along with the fathers, because they saw the need and did not have a problem with stepping in to help. We have to understand our fathers are not like our mothers, they might not hug as much, or say I love you as much, but they do care as much. They may have missed some of the events you had going on as a child, but you always had a place to stay, clothes on your back, and food to eat. God has called the father to be the provider and protector of the family and they are successful in do it as they walk by faith.
Today I want you to take some time and reflect on what you father has done for you. He may not have said “I love you”, but if you look at what he has done, he was telling you how much he loves you. So, make it your business to let your father know you love and appreciate all that he has done for you. Happy Father’s Day!
