~ My Guiding Lights , Happy Father's Day ~


I honor my God, & Father, for His love. Father’s Day is truly His day for which I offer my everlasting gratitude daily. Without Him, we mere souls are nothing.

My precious DH I am so blessed to have in my life ~

He lies on the floor with me when I am too sick to climb the stairs to go to bed & soothes me when I am violently ill. I treasure those morning kisses before breakfast & his gentle loving caresses each night. How he holds my hand for no reason, I appreciate the gesture. When he drives me ump-teen hundreds of miles for a purchase or sits in the car patiently while I shop. His providing for me & our family & friends, without question ... his generosity for my family members. He supports me in my religion & beliefs. His allowing me to give & do for others, without question. The love he gives me, no matter what I say or do.

My strength holds up with his very selfless, caring love. He has afforded me all our lives together to have the freedom to be me, & I in return to him. He works beside me without question on any project to ease my load, & I with him. He has a kind heart & gentle sweet soul that is always there, in that I know I am safe. He holds me up through the most devastating times in life & shares my joys. He is a God loving deeply religious good hearted man. I love you so much, I thank you. You are the love of my human life. Our children are very lucky to have you as a parent.

For this I thank my good Lord daily to have been so blessed in our lives … together, with Him as our focus, spirit, counselor & friend to keep us on a strong path in His guiding light. For His patience & continued strength to constantly carry our loads, share His love, & bless us each & every moment of our lives.

(In memory also of DH's blessed father, Harvey, may he rest in peace ... the kindest sweet fil anyone could ask for)

May you each have a wonderful Father's Day filled with happiness & joy & love.

  18. What a wonderful man you have there and how you must love each other. I hope he doesn't read this post or he'll not be able to get through the door! Our Father's Day is on the 21st this year. Today (the 18th June, your post date) is my son Jason's birthday, so still a special day for me. Lovely post.

  25. I was touched by your words and post...Yes, happy Fathers Day to that special man in your life... and dear friend, look up, look up, and let your faith continually increase. Let this faith guide you along the narrow path that leads through the gates of the city into the great beyond, the wide, unbounded future of glory that is for the redeemed.
