Jason's Testimony

Today's lesson..

Pastor Jason couldn't understand it, he had heard about his father's upcoming wedding a week before the event, though he disapproved of the bride to be,a glaring age difference, he still would wish his dad all the best, but no invitation came.
He thought he would call just out of curiosity to see if maybe ,just maybe his name or the invitation had been somehow mislaid.
He thought against doing so.
Other persons asked if he would see him at the wedding , but of course, it's my father.
The day before still no call ,no invitation .
Reluctantly he went ,along with his wife ,his children.
There would be more shocks as during the toast ,as the toaster made mention of his son ,who unfortunately could not be there as he was  currently working in the Bahamas, it finally dawned on him ,this wasn't a mistake ,and oversight , he and his family were deliberately cast aside.
Jason boldly scrambled his thought, too many , if the earth could open and swallow him.
After the toast he bravely went to congratulate the father ,at which his father looked right through him, not even acknowledging his presence.A harsh lesson ,but a lesson done the less.He left with his family.No one uttering a word...
This was the testimony by our pastor today , simply saying the one who will never disown you, shun you or forsake you , is God ,yes, you may at times ignore , distance yourself from him, turn your back , deny him,but he is always ,and will always be there for you..
