Sunday Morning - “Our Father”
I am happy to report that I was unable to get a message out last weekend, due to the fact that I was celebrating my nine-year anniversary with my wife in Big Sur – my favorite place. I stated before that I am focusing on the journey or at least trying to. If I can’t get my to-do list done, I am working on being okay with that, sounds easy, but a test for me. So when vacationing or hanging with family, I try not to let my to-do list sneak into my head. Sometimes I do this well & sometimes not so much.
This past weekend I was not sure what to write about being father’s day. So I put it off & enjoyed the day with my wife, more of the journey & not until today did I think about what to write. I was talking with my wife and I mentioned my challenge to her, not knowing what to write. She knew it was a tough day for me for a few reasons & then she said this, “We should celebrate father’s day with God in mind. He is our Father who has loved us & helped us through our lonely, tough, scared, bad, fear-filled moments. It really hit me. What a great perspective! I am all about the perspective & if you can mentally manually turn it in a way that makes you feel better – TOUCHDOWN! To celebrate a union of 9 years with my best friend & have her still affect me, teach me & show me a better way to be & look at life is a true blessing. And my Father in heaven brought her to me J
Hope you had a great weekend & have an even better week!
