Happy Father’s Day!

Happy Father’s Day! Today we celebrate the Fathers in our lives.  This is a chance to give the honor due them.  Ephesians 6:23 says, “Honor your Father and Mother, which is the first commandment with a promise, that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth.”  Webster’s states that honor is “high respect or great esteem”.  Fathers are called to lovingly lead their families, as they follow Jesus.  Fathers are to be the head…

A person’s heart plans his way, but the Lord determines his steps.” Proverbs 16:9 I am guessing that this is not how you thought that 2020 would be going. It has definitely been different than any other year I personally have experienced. There has been so much change and so many things have been cancelled. Some might say that 2020 has just been a bad year, but has it? I have still seen God at work during all of this…
