The Dad i adore
I adore my Dad who himself found a beautiful wife and a beautiful mom for me! How? I have no idea? I mean i always hear from them how they found each other, how he wooed her, but sometimes i really wonder how my dad was able to court my mom who was such a P.Y.T in her younger days and still one who is aging gracefully to this day. From the stories i heard from my mom, tons of guys were already after her before my dad and some how, just some how God brought them both together, and till this day my mom and dad are still faithful towards each other despite the bumpy road of life. God i just so want to thank You for that! Hack they still FLIRT with each other still…
Oh this i still remember, during my younger days, my imagination was wild. I recall making a “BOMB/C4″, shaped like a block out of LEGO along with a LEGO remote to detonate it. I would then place the “BOMB/C4″ at the corner of the door awaiting for my father’s return from home. The moment i hear him coming in, i’d set myself in place ready for him. Right when he opens the door and places his suite case at the corner, i’d pull the trigger with a self made SFX “THEET” and then my Dad will go “BOOM!!” and “AIYAAH!” dropping slow motion to the ground, by then I’d laugh and laugh. The same thing happens over the days/weeks to come and he would not fail to entertain me and my imaginary “BOMB/C4″.
I’m so very proud of my dad! And these are just the little small things i recall, with so much i can really testify how blessed i am to have a dad like him. Although i argue with him at times and let him down, he would always find away to reconcile with me, not often but he has really tried at times. I mean through the years i find it harder and harder to communicate my needs to him or say “i’m sorry” or even a simple “i love you” which btw i used to say alot to both my parents in my younger days. I believe it’s the pride of a “Big Manly Man” that made my heart and my words cold towards him.
O Lord forgive me, give me a breakthrough!
Writing a “Love Letter” to my dad which has been way past overdue.
Having alot of things in my heart hoping to share more on this in order to bless u too
Can’t wait to testify once i have a breakthrough over this matter.
“May you appreciate your earthly father for what he has done for you and not wait for him to make a move to restore what have been lost through the years, but you and i make the 1st move to love, by which in doing so pleases our Heavenly Father as well, and He will bring restoration to what was once lost”
