To All My Children

To all my children,

It is so wonderful that you take time to recognize my sons. It is thoughtful of you to show them special appreciation on this day you have called “Fathers Day”. I really don’t mind the gesture at all but let me remind you that everyday is “FATHER’s DAY”. Who took nothing and called it into something, then took that something and formed a body, breathed my breath into that body and called him man? Who by breathing provides the life wind for all living things? Who shaped you, placed you, and wakes you everyday, never forgetting once, never to busy with other worlds matters to provide you that personal attention? Who walks with you, provides protecting angels for you, and carries you when you don’t even know that your legs have given out under you? Who loves you, has faith in you, believes in you when you have given up on yourself? Who will listen to your thoughts, your troubles, and your feelings no matter what time it is? Who can you trust with your inner-most feelings without worry of them getting out to the entire world? Who showers you with the rain, wraps you up in the sunshine, and paints a beautiful rainbow for your pleasure? Who can you call after you have called everybody else, which will treat you as though your first call was to Him? Who can say yes when the doctors have said no, who can say no when the doctor’s say you have? Who knows all your hang-up, ugly little secrets, all your flaws, all your fears and loves you as though you were perfect? Who no matter what your color, what your frame, what’s in your brain, big bone, red bone, little bone, no bone, thick, thin, heavy or frail, short, tall or vertically challenged is proud to declare to the worlds that you are made in His image? Who serenades you with the thunder, entertains you with a lighting light show? Who disciplines you in such a way that you always benefit? Who rewards you for your obedience with a blank check that will never come back, NSF? Who loves you so much that He gave His first born to die that you might live? Who, although a thousand of your years is but a day to Him, is available anytime you call? Come on my child, tell me who!

Go ahead my child, honor those who honor is do, but when you are through, remember that it’s your Heavenly Father’s Day to. Oh, “I’m Who” each and everyday I love you and I cherish you. I have but one more question my children, who took time today, yesterday, and forevermore to say to me through the actions of their heart, HAPPY FATHERS DAY, Heavenly Father, “Happy Fathers Day?
