Pause for Prayer: SUNDAY 6/19

(Here's a link to my other Fathers Day post.) 


Praying for dads today, Lord...

   praying for dads of all kinds...

Praying for dads who did a great job
   and for dads who messed up most of the time...

Praying for dads who were always at home
   and for dads who left and never returned... 

Praying for dads remembered with love   

   and for dads forgotten by those they loved...

Praying for dads who tried but failed
   and for dads who failed to try...

Praying for dads who worked so hard
   and praying for dads who worked too hard...

Praying for dads who solved our problems
   and for dads whose problems became our own...

Praying for dads who loved their wives, 
   who lost their wives, who left their wives...

Praying for dads who were always there
   and for dads who lost their way...

Praying for dads who had dads to teach them
   and for dads who winged it, self-taught...

Praying for dads whose words were wise
   and for dads who had little to say... 

Praying for dads who were so understanding

   and for dads who just didn't get it...

Praying for dads who led us to you, Lord,
   and for dads whose faith was a secret...

Praying for dads who have died,
   who we trust have gone home to you...

Praying for dads today, Lord,
   praying for dads of all kinds:
love and forgive them, bless and console them,
   heal and redeem them 
      and give them your peace...
