A reason to hug your Dad!

I could have used a box of kleenex today during service. To celebrate Father's Day, my church welcomed Charlotte and Emmitt Ray. A couple I had never heard of will now forever be remembered in my heart. I was never an emotional person until I became a mother. Very few things would cause me to shed a tear. I don't know why. They shared a story of loss and hope, emphasizing God's plan in their life. If you have a few minutes, I encourage you to visit this link: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/eticket/story?page=rayofhope

We ended church today with He Knows My Name. I could barely sing along as I bawled at the wondrous love our Father has for us!

I have a Maker
He formed my heart
Before even time began
My life was in his hands

He knows my name
He knows my every thought
He sees each tear that falls
and He hears me when I call

I have a Father
He calls me His own
He'll never leave me
No matter where I go

Dad, I love you very much and wish I could give you a big hug today! I am glad you are enjoying Father's Day in the Bahamas. Thank you for giving me your best.
