Daddy or chips ?
After having my dad leave us when I was 5, I didn't really notice a obvious change in my up-bringing. I never really felt like I was missing out on what everyone else had.
I didn't really understand the concept of father's day.
I guess I was lucky to have so much family within the church as I was growing up.
Growing up, I guess my only real 'father figure' was Pete. Our families were pretty close and we went on holidays together and stuff. I know this role was never intentionally put into place, but I am greatful for it anyway.
Now, I kinda "get" fathers day a bit better. Even though my earthly father isn't around, my heavenly one is!!!
The building 429 song "you are loved" really speaks to me. I get upset and joyful at the same time over the lyrics
Just to hear You say_"you are loved, My son"
To hear You speak my name and say "well done"
love you x
