My True Father

My last year in College I lost Hope. My parents have always taken great care of me, and I was pretty ashamed, but knew they would help me pay for school, however I was prepared to take out loans if need be. My mom, couldn't help me, but my dad said he would give me what ever I needed. I should point out that my parents are divorced, and that at this time my mom had more going for her financially than did my dad. This really hurt me, but it also inspired me to work hard. It hurt because my dad lives in the middle of no where, in a house that his dad built, that is basically falling apart. He could have chosen to live in a nicer place, close to people. I really hurt for what my dad sacrificed to pay for me to go to school. I went to school, didn't work, got to live in a dorm, was around great friends, got plenty of food, and gas money. While my dad worked. I then graduated in May of 2010. My plan was to try and bring up my G.P.A. This would require me to take more classes, again, my dad paid for my living and for my school....living by himself, and working.

I truly saw the Gospel displayed in my dad's life in his sacrifice and love for me. How much more is my True Father's Love for me. Luke 11:11 Jesus teaches on prayer and how well earthly fathers give to their children. How much more I love my earthly father now, seeing the sacrifice, and love he's given me. How much more motivated I am to work hard and honor him, because of what he has done for me. In the same way, I desire to live a life worthy of the calling I have received, Ephesians 4:1, Philippians 1:27, in order to honor my earthly father as well as my Heavenly Father. Proverbs 10:1 "...A wise son brings joy to his father..."

This is my desire!
