(My Happy Father’s Day to HIM)


You loved me

Before I was conceived

 

You spoke to my mother

As she was about to kill me

While still in her womb

 

You loved me

And wanted me to live

Until time to go Home to you

 

You love me

Unconditionally

Even when I sin

And you forgive me

 

You love me

So much

You help me through tough times

 

You love me

So joyfully

You bless me

Even though I don’t deserve it

 

The Boy

Who planted the seed

In the teenage girl’s womb

Never became my father

 

The Man

Who eventually married her

And adopted me as his

Did his best to be a good father

 

Neither, the Boy or the Man

Would love me

As only you have

As only you do

As only you can

 

Thank you

My True Father

My Heavenly Father

For your unconditional love

Your sacrifice for me

Your forgiveness

Your blessings

 

Dear God

Thank YOU for being my FATHER

And

Happy Father’s Day

Your childlike love for your True Father is heartwarming. He must be filled with joy over it. He doesn't need to read it over again because He knows you and enjoys your mutual love for each other always.
Also one of His kids,

THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL AND WITH A MOST UNIQUE TWIST...A FATHER'S DAY TRIBUTE TO JESUS. WHAT AN ENJOYABLE AND APPRECIATED WORK, THAT IS FILLED WITH THE LOVE THAT ONLY A CHILD COULD FEEL FOR THEIR 'TRUE FATHER'. GOD BLESS AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING.

Dear Ann,

Beautifully Expressed in Poetic Song!

Growing up, my earthly father was not very nice to me. God, the real father of all of us, took me out of the darkness.

Thank you Jesus!

Ann, as I read this today, the tears rolled down my cheeks. I must have missed it somehow. When we have God in our hearts, we have all we need to guide us in our lives...without Him we just exist. I'm sure many will be touched by this inspiring writing...I know it touched me.

What a beautiful heartfelt poem.
In times of sorrow, despair, and grief...or sometimes even in times of joy... I can feel His presence in my heart and it helps me feel at peace.
