Day 2 (A Family Member!)



(My dad working in his office this afternoon! "What are you taking these pictures for??" :D)

My dad is an unmeasurable blessing in my life!  Thank you, Lord, for all that you have done in the life of my Dad! Thank you for his example to empower and challenge me everyday!!

Today, he kissed us all good-morning. He sat on the piano bench and encouraged a discouraged pianist. He fixed a broken lawn mower. He talked on conference calls. He positioned a new trampolene. He read to our family from the Word.

He walks humbly.
He is compassionate towards little ones.
He is gentle towards tender hearts.
He is faithful to the things he commits himself.
He is so very hardworking.
He is sincere.

"A proud man is always looking down on things and people: and, of course, as long as you're looking down, you can't see something that's above you." (C.S. Lewis)

Oh, Lord, thank you for my dad - a man who diligently pursues the wisdom that is from above!

"But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace."
(from James 3).
