Father's Day!

My Hero! Seriously there are not enough words to describe how much I love and respect this man. He has taught me so much about a "fathers Love" and the picture of the way a man is to love. I am married to an amazing guy... but that is only because of the high bar and example he set. The way he loves my Mom and loves the Lord is well.. simply amazing. He is humble, kind, and gracious. He has a way of loving people and loving the unlovely, abandoned, and lost. Thinking of my dad and the Godly man he is brings tears to my eyes. I do not take his love forgranted, so many sweet young women are growing up without Dads or Dad's that know how to love them. He has played major roles in so many lives showing them that there are good, pure, and honerable men. I know God uses him in mighty ways and through his actions I know he is showing the "love of our Heavenly Father." I know God will say to him, "well done my good and faithful servant!" So on this Father's day I want everyone to know that I am so blessed to have this man as my Father!!




Below are the lyrics to the song I danced to at my wedding with my precious Father!


Three feet tall and full of questions
You must have thought I was the smartest man alive
I didn't always have the answers
To every little how and where and why

Like Daddy, why's the sky so blue today?
Does Jesus really hear me when I pray?
When I grow up, will I be just like you?
Will I be tall and strong and brave?

CHORUS(1):
There is no power on earth like your fathers' love
So big and so strong as your father's love
A promise that's sacred, a promise from heaven above
No matter where you go... always know
You can depend on your father's love

Especially when it's cold, especially when you're lonely
When your little heart is lost trying to find it's way
I know the world is always changing
But, remember, that some things never change

And even when my life on earth is through
There will still be a part of me in you
'Cause some things are forever
Nothing's ever gonna take my love from you

CHORUS(2):
There is no power on earth like your father's love
So big and so strong as your father's love
A promise that's sacred, a promise from heaven above
Did I hug enough, did I care enough
When you most needed me,
Was I there enough
Enough to make you feel the power of
Your father's love
