FATHERS DAY

Snippet

“My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person – he believed in me.” - Jim Valvano

Scripture

Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.  “Honor your father and mother”—which is the first commandment with a promise— “so that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth.” Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord. Ephesians 6:1-4

Song 
Usher Prayer for You

You gonna say something to the people
Prayer for you
A prayer to you
Do I sound that bad
Just the simple thought of you means everything
To my life you give meaning you're the best
So precious my gift for life
That's why I send you up this prayer
I pray for your protection your covering
That everything intended for you you'll receive
And I'll believe he'll guide you
Lord honor my prayer
Prayer for you
A prayer to you
I pray for you
Pray for you
I'll do my best to be there for you every day
To be what my father wish he was to me
Baby I got you
Daddy you'll be there
To encourage you to be the best you can be
You carry my name I pray that you're better than me
I ain't going nowhere
Even when I get on your nerves
Cause I'm your daddy
My prayer for you
Son I pray for you

Sentence Prayer

Heavenly Father; you have compassion on those who reverently fear you.
Teach me to have compassion on  my own children, who look to me to be
An example of you.  Jesus have compassion on me as I fall short.
Holy Spirit comfort me in my failure and give me to courage

To try anew each day to be the best father I can be.  Amen!
