I hope you enjoy a Happy Father’s Day. I know I will. Most of the family will be coming over after church for some hotdogs and hamburgers. I am looking forward to having a very good day. I do have to say though that my dad passed away almost ten years ago and I miss him, especially on days like today. I miss him on days when a big football game is on and it seems like the outcome is coming down to one play and in times past I could pick up the phone and call him and we could share that moment together. I miss him when I have some expression of his go through my mind, something like, “If you’re going to be a bear…be a grizzly” or “Yeah, it’s just a game…until you lose.” I miss him on days like today when the family is gathered together because he sure did love his grandkids and I sure would love for him to get to spend some time his great-grandkids. Yeah, sometimes I just miss him but I am comforted by the fact that he knew the Lord. And based on the promise of John 14:1-3 someday I will see my dad again.
