It’s Father’s Day!

Reflecting on life with my dad, many things stand out: family camping and boating, singing, attending church, learning right from wrong, how to win and lose gracefully, then later, visits home simply taking walks together. I miss him, and love how he demonstrated the work of leading our family in ways pleasing to the Lord. God’s perfect order in creation meant establishing the family (Genesis 28:14). Christian fathers connect us to God’s Word to strengthen and encourage us to follow God’s commands, learning to stand firm while Satan seeks to harm us. His word teaches us to fear and love God, respect our parents, live in harmony. To God be all glory as today we honor the fathers in our lives.
