“It’s Just A Thought”
Happy Father’s Day
Letter
To every Father,
may you enjoy a beautiful day of affection from your family. This day, gives
those who love you most, an opportunity to make you feel special.
Every dad who
loves his children wants to feel that special moment of appreciation. The one,
where you know, that you are loved, by your child/children. Your sacrifices and
labor of love, have made an impression on those you care for most. The recipients
of your care and sacrifice are extremely grateful and hope you feel their
respect. While it is not easy to face today’s challenges, you remain centered
on putting your family ahead of other desires. It has made a lasting impression
that can be considered a legacy.
We, as your
children, are maturing and so appreciate the love and protection you have
provided. It has become a seed buried within our hearts. Upon it’s blossom a
tree will be produced, for you to take shade and comfort from the challenges of
life. When you feel mis-understood, and your E.Q. seems to lag behind your
expectations, may you find the understanding that so freely has come to us,
from you.
As children who
have a “hands on” Dad, we feel so blessed. “Thank You, Thank You”, for not
being selfish and know that we want you to feel special. The dreams you
carry and want to accomplish are important to us too. You have been so gracious
to us, we hope to help be an encouragement to you also. We pray for your life
to be enriched, and your time to be lived with a deep sense of gratitude. We
know we will see the very best of life come back to you as you have so
unselfishly given to us.
“Thank you” for
taking such good care of us. Being present to know what we are going through in
life. “Thank you” for loving our mother and treating her like a queen. “Thank
you” for showing us the love of God and helping us understand; no matter how
difficult our days can be, He will never leave our side.
Also, we are
grateful to know our life is not measured by our status or achievement’s. You have taught us to care about others. Some
of our friends at school don’t have at home what you have given to our family. “Thank
you”, for teaching us to be kind. To be understanding to how different people’s
lives can be and not to judge. We all have been made in the image of God. The
many advantages that we enjoy as your children, help reinforce: “To whom much
has been given, much is required.” While we have watched you be an example of
one who is blessed, to be a blessing, we promise to implement in our life to
others, what we have seen in you.
- We will be relatable to
others, kind and fair.
- We will take care of our
self, refraining from substance abuse, lying, cheating, dishonesty. We
will treat our self with dignity and respect, as you have lived before us.
- We will reach for new
experiences and goals without becoming unrealistic about them.
- When life hits us hard,
we will find Christ’s power of love to rise up in. Our life will reach to meaning,
because like you, we will be part of something bigger than us.
This is our “Father’s
Day” Pledge to you Dad. We will always love and honor you. We will take what
you have given us with such deep respect. We will follow the faith and example
of you with Christ. We are now part of your legacy “Love God, Love family and
love others.”
“Thank You Dad”
Until The Next
Time,
All of us, who
love our Dad’s.
