HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!!
June 16th is Father’s Day. Compared to Mother’s Day, cards, gifts, poems, sayings, and stories about fathers are much harder to find and are limited. I find this very unfair and frustrating for where would we be today without those great “dads” in this world? For me, one of the greatest things I miss about my deceased dad, John Weatherbie, is being in fellowship with him - talking, fishing, family get-togethers, etc. For 33 years he has been in Heaven abiding with the Lord and countless other family members and friends. Although I miss him, I know that I will see him again.
I am so thankful that God sent Jesus into this world, who died on the cross for humanity’s sins, and then rose victorious from the grave. Who offers all people salvation and eternal life. John writes in I John 1:3-4, “We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. We write this to make our joy complete.”
As believers, our fellowship is with all believers and the Trinity. May all dads, living and deceased find their joy knowing that their love for God and their family is not in vain. God promises them and all of us JOY. Happy “Father’s Day” to you all!
And now may the grace of our Lord, Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all. Pastor Jean
