Reflections of my Father

Array

We are coming upon a day of celebration of the fathers in our lives. As most of you know, this is the very first Father’s Day for me without mine. I’ve spent a great deal of time trying to figure out life without him, everything this year is a first. Ultimately, I’ve decided to celebrate him this Father’s Day, go eat at his favorite place, churn the ice cream maker, gather with family, laugh…cry…remember.

I will rejoice that our great God chose the man that would father me with great purpose and anticipation.

As Father’s Day approaches, I am reminded of the special relationship that fatherhood encompasses, both of my earthly and Heavenly Father.

God is the only perfect Father. He never ceases to love, and His love is expressed by his constant care, patience, and mercy toward us.

His love for me was most clearly expressed in His invitation to be adopted into his family. Simple faith in Christ was the only requirement for this eternal adoption, and even that faith was a gift from Him.

Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,” Ephesians 1:5.

Ultimately, I find the greatest solace knowing that although my earthly father has gone to be with our Heavenly Father, I will one day be reunited in the greatest family reunion of all eternity!
