The Gift From a Father To His Sons'

A father is a special person in a young child's life, He shows Him basically things he needs to make his life full and bright' Being their for his children in sickness, in social values, and of course good health. The father realizing that this child is a blessing, a God given wealth. Not many are good, the Dad's teaching, the morals, are something instilled in him, It comes naturally, given from his parents, passed down from generations, to give morals to his children. Like myself, I didn't listen, like others, I of course rebelled. I thought I knew everything, making my life a living hell. So as a rebellious son, I didn't pay attention to my father, Running away, trying to find nothing out in the world, this I finally realize and gathered. By not listening to my Father, I became something of a burden and a bad person, Not all bad, because you see, I re-grouped Through God, I learned a hard lesson. Well my earthly father is gone now, silently in his grave, I never told him I loved him a lot, I just wasn't that brave. I never thanked him for his life's lessons to me. That was a sin, and I pray that the Lord will forgive this pretty sad human being. Now I have the Holy Father in me, the Spiritual One, the one we all need. Through Him I can teach other children, to be better and succeed. My earthly father did the best he could with this misguided son. But through his devotion, his life's lessons, I turned to the loving living One. Our Father is not of this earth and He wants us to pay attention, though sometimes it's called tough love. We have to learn in a manner that we hard headed children learn, from our real Father above. If my earthly father was here, in the here and now, I'd ask for his forgiveness. So I say this, thank you earthly father for your love, but the true lesson I learned is from Our Father above His True Kindness. Robert Ball June 28, 2011
