Thoughts on Father’s Day ©

A Fathers promise to His Children

Despite what challenges life presents. Despite what may come, I am here for you. Shining in the darkness, all my light is yours. Crossing the abyss together we will succeed. We will together serve Him with all our strength. I see Him in you and it is that which is cherished. You are that. There is no separation. ‘I am that,’ and we together are one, never apart. My strength is His as it is yours, and yours is ours. Only the mind is confused by the illusion of separation. The heart is not fooled. Let your heart lead. We serve Him and the greater good, not ourselves, yet our needs are more than fulfilled when we do His work. Follow your heart and it will lead you on a glorious quest, a quest we shall achieve together. I am always here for you. It has always been so. Take my hand and we will soar, for we are love and nothing can withstand our Joy.

A Father’s Strength

By Robert H Wellington

With silent strength, his love’s expressed. Most visible in times of stress

But always there to comfort and guide, His family, his joy, his love and his pride

A pillar, rock and corner stone, A love that shows we’re not alone

To serve his family is his way, To catch the falling, come what may

He’s there to help with heavy load.  He sees the vision and the road

He’s there to help each make their way,  Protect the lost, and guide the stray

His compass is the sacred word.  The joy of service his reward

Always there to help and serve,  To smooth our path make straight the curves

He teaches, till we are adept.  He shows the way, he cheers each step

Though we must travel on our own.  He shares his light till we are grown

He asks for nothing in return.  He shares the joy as children learn

And so he stands there like a rock,  With loving heart, he tends his flock

Never will he step away.  His duty clear like light of day

And so he’s there through our long climb,  And will be loved beyond all time
