The Mystery Person:
F is for “FORGIVING.” Even when we disobey or do something wrong, this person is willing to forgive us.
A is for “ATTENTIVE.” When we need someone to talk to, this person is willing to listen to what we have to say.
T is for “TEACHER.” This person teaches us the most important lessons of our life. He teaches us right from wrong. He teaches us by example how to love one another.
H is for “HELPFUL.” This person helps us to make the important decisions we face each day. He may offer advice, or he may just be a good listener, but he is always there to help us.
E is for “ENERGETIC.” No matter how tired he is, this person always seems to find the energy to do things with us and for us.
R is for “READY.” This person is always ready to reach out in love to us. He is ready to do whatever we need.
Who is this person? Our father! Now, I realize that some of you might not have a father in your home, but you have a Heavenly Father who wants to do all of these things for you. After all, that is who we earthly fathers use as our example!
Dear Lord,
we thank you for our fathers.
Help us this day to show our love and appreciation to our fathers,
and may we always remember to thank you,
our heavenly Father.
Amen.
Thank you to Claire Hannington for this week’s Sunday School lesson.
Happy Father’s day to all the dads, grandads, and uncles.
