Father and Dads

Happy Father's Day to all the dads around the world God Bless You!

Had no real to to see through a dad on earth no eyes to see from birth good men stepped in acting like Preachers so my mind is in a swirl thinking about what other little girls have said to me over the years and some of us we came to dinner  with each other and my eyes aglow for only my friend knew the parallel  friendship we had for each other she would want me to visit  after school her family own the sweet  shop a after school hang out grab a dance by the jukebox for a nickel  drink a  drink or two my friend talking myself talking about how different we are being raised told her my feelings about this way  that did not know what a real daddy looked like wanted to feel something else beside being step with someone else teachings like so my friend showed me everything about a dad is wonderful and some other girls  sad  to this day 
                               We pray No way!! Some say! yeah. but they the others say!
  Daddy, you are wonderful loving living giving accepting believing kind but stern considering feelings and helping others! provide do care how he brave the storms of this way of this life bold strong working hard for family puts food on the table and so do mommies and moms! said many too that was raised all about mommy.
And most would say love my Dad knew what they meant! My thoughts wandered back to me I was six years old at this time of going back to write this true story right now in my thinking of what was and what is!
Thoughts of my friend just my thoughts now before we start this true story making it clear my friend's name is used as he is with me he is called Jesus this is even  before I knew he got hung on a cross was asked to sing for this church around the corner from the house mom  left it up to me was six years old so this meant dressing up of course went and sung a song  even right now loves but however this the first hurtful shock of my young life when a lady passed out as  the song was sung did this before my eyes wanted her to keep on believing yes the song from my mouth keep singing  with confidence because who knew what would happen when the song was finished sung on to the end this is what was sung What a Friend we have in Jesus she needed smelling salt under her nose nevertheless had to keep singing but  to tell the truth  may have gain a couple of new notes that day the others were looking at me with joy and anticipation sing child sing so I sung B-flat strong What a  friend we have in Jesus all I sins and griefs to bear what a priviledge to carry everything to God in Prayer oh what peace we often forfeith oh what needless pains we bear  all because we do not carry everything to God in prayer! And just one more time so did just that this was before my recital at the Municipal Auditorium at seven years old before my piano teacher just talked a little about that story bye-bye Happy days ahead for you and yours called your family well wishes through the years God Speed! we pray for your success in the Lord and the miracles to be granted this year we agree! Because just a little talk with Jesus tell him about your sorrow wishes desires wants needs health and wealth plans loves and times of doubt tell him my dear he will work it out!
What a friend we have in Jesus all our sins and griefs to bear what a privilege to carry everything!  Everything everything everything everything to God in prayer. Can we find a friend so faithful who does all our sorrow share Jesus knows our every weakness mess test and the rest take it to the Lord in prayer!   Happy Days Ahead!
