Straight from Wikipedia - Father’s Day is a celebration inaugurated in the early twentieth century to complement Mother’s Day in celebrating fatherhood and male parenting, and to honour and commemorate fathers and forefathers. Father’s Day is celebrated on a variety of dates worldwide and typically involves gift-giving, and special dinners to fathers and family-oriented activities. In 2008, it will be celebrated on June 15 in most countries.
Today is the day we honor our Fathers. Your dad might have be a loving, caring soul who raised you right and you know you’re all the better for it. Your dad might have been a lousy, bottom-feeding, pathetic excuse for a lifeform who wasn’t a part of your childhood. Your dad might have worked hard to make six figures and was able to provide you with your every need and every want but you didn’t have the kind of relationship you wished for. Your dad might not have had the best job in the world, but he understood how important it was to build a good relationship with his family.
No matter where you come from or what kind of relationship you have with your father, take this moment to thank God for the love that He offers you as your heavenly Father. He is the model for our father’s to press towards. He is our Perfect Father when our earthly fathers fail. He is Abba. Papa.
