Father's Day

At church today, our pastor talked about the devastation of being Dad-lessness.  He talked about Jacob and Esau, along with their problems.  You know Esau was Isaac's favorite, and Jacob tricked his father into giving him Esau's blessing.  So, he mentioned three important things about all of us.  1)  A blessing is desired by all of us.  2)  When the blessing is not received, it may become despised.  3) Then the blessing is dispensed.
    You will never know what it is like to have a bad father in your life because you have an amazing father who shows his love for you everyday and who constantly tells you how much he loves you.  But, everyone does not live that way.  I just want you to always know that the enemy knows we desire those blessings, and sometimes when we do not get the blessing we want- we go the opposite direction.  We can receive all of our blessings through Jesus- He dispenses them all to us.

Just remember that God is a fountain of favor!  You are very blessed because you have a Heavenly Father who adores you and an earthly Father who feels the same way!
