Father's Day Prayer

Father’s Day Prayer

Let us praise those fathers who have striven to balance the demands of work, marriage, and children with an honest awareness of both joy and sacrifice. Let us praise those fathers who, lacking a good model for a father, have worked to become a good father.

Let us praise those fathers who by their own account were not always there for their children, but who continue to offer those children, now grown, their love and support. Let us pray for those fathers who have been wounded by the neglect and hostility of their children.

Let us praise those fathers who, despite divorce, have remained in their children's lives. Let us praise those fathers whose children are adopted, and whose love and support has offered healing.

Let us praise those fathers who, as stepfathers, freely choose the obligation of fatherhood and earned their step children's love and respect. Let us praise those fathers who have lost a child to death, and continue to hold the child in their heart.

Let us praise those men who have no children, but cherish the next generation as if they were their own.

Let us praise those men who have "fathered" us in their role as mentors and guides.

Let us praise those men who are about to become fathers; may they openly delight in their children.

And let us praise those fathers who have died, but live on in our memory and whose love continues to nurture us.
Kirk Loadman

In Jesus Name I pray, amen

Psalm 103:13
Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.

Proverbs 3:11-12
11 My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction:
12 For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.

Remembering all the great father's  step fathers, grandfathers and all good men today

both on earth and in Heaven

Why God Created Fathers

When God created Fathers, He made two loving arms

To cradle us and shelter us from the worldly harm.

When God created Fathers, He made a pair of hands

To care for us and guide us through our choices and our plans.

When God created Fathers, He made the warmest heart

To understand and give our lives a happy, loving start.

Why God created Fathers, is not a mystery. . .

He meant to share His love with us and did it perfectly.

Blessings on the fathers that guide their children,

that love them perfectly.

For some this father is a dream

For some this father is a special man that steps in

to love us unconditionally.

It may be an uncle, friend, or grandfather that takes

up the banner strong.

God bless these special fathers on this day set aside just for them.

~Happy 1st Day of Summer!~ ~♥~♥

Happy Summer! 
In the Northern Hemisphere, summer officially begins at 12:39 p.m. EDT. It’s the longest day of the year and old folklore says whatever you dream about tonight will come to pass. 
From here on out, each day will get just a little bit shorter until the winter solstice in December.

Beauitful creation from my lovely friend Dani

Love you
