twelve years later…
…on Friday, August 13th (9 days from today), I will re-unite with my biological father.
Fifteen years ago, my mother divorced my biological father and moved with her across the country. I visited him a couple years after the divorce, but haven’t seen him since. Within those twelve years, my father remarried and had a son. However, praise the Lord, in 9 days (august 13th), my father will step off the airplane terminal and I will come right back into his arms. I will also meet (for the first time, mind you) my little brother (in 6th grade now) and enjoy the entire weekend with them both. I am speechless. I am near tears each time i think about it.
Father, how can your love be so signifant to me? How can your love be so extravagent to bless me in such a way so profound?
At the same time, my lovely mother and three beautiful sisters will also spend the weekend with me. I am hostely at a loss. For the first time in over 15 years, will I have all that are dear to me, together with me. With me.
Father, this will be the most precious gift you will have ever blessed me with. Thank you for making this possible. Thank you for giving that brief window of time to embrace your love even more. I love you Father. These tears, if I can only let them go, are for you. I love you so much Father… your fire… deep in my soul… i just want to let it go, Father, in a new way… help this night be an offering to you. I love you Father… I love you… thank you for your love, in Your Son’s Name, amen.
update from an earlier post :: the Lord is also delivering all of the funds that I need to graduate. Praise the Lord.
The Lord is Gracious and Companionate!
