Father's Day!

Today is Father's Day. Of course, for some of us, this doesn't always represent the fondest of memories. The good news is, whether you have the best biological dad in the whole world or your "pops" was a deadbeat, we at HeavenlySanctuary.com are absolutely convinced that our Daddy (this is what Abba means!) in Heaven is love personified. Let's always remember that no matter how life has been, we can take great pleasure in knowing that we are being healed by the goodness of our Maker - and even if we had earthly fathers who didn't live up to our expectations, we can take joy in serving them as Christ serves us.

I never had a good relationship with my dad. He was a very violent man. I always wanted him to love me, but he was so prideful...

Now, after all these years, he has had a stroke and can no longer live on his own. I am the only one who can take care of him and I count it a real testimony that God has healed me so that I feel like it is a privilege to care for my father. When I think of how I treated God my whole life and yet He never left me, it helps me to understand that what Father's Day is really all about is out God!

Love your fathers today, and if you haven't talked to your dad for a long time, why not give him a call and start the process of healing?
