Happy Father's Day

In my life, I have been blessed with the presence of several "father" figures - my dad, Carl Rickie, Rick F and Papa Ferguson. Each very special to me in a different way.  I have written numerous posts about my own father, who had a great influence on me growing up. But this Father's Day, I decided to give a special tribute to my Heavenly father, who truly has shown me grace and mercy in every area of my life. I know that I have disappointed Him many times, I have not listened to Him, I have rebelled, and I do not spend as much time with Him as I should. But no matter how much I disappoint Him and do not come close to living up to His standards, He loves me anyway. Thank you, God, for the relationship that we have.
