My son pointed out that he was going to be gone over Father’s Day and was concerned about doing something before you left. I’m afraid I just laughed at him. We go out to dinner every week. We see each other at regular family activities. I am in no way neglected nor short of attention from my children.
Father’s Day is conspiracy by mothers who want to justify Mothers’ Day. They put it in there so that they would not feel guilty about demanding special attention. That’s the way they think. I think men on the hole tend to wish it was always ignored. I know I don’t like particularly celebrating birthdays.
If there is one prayer request that I might have for Father’s Day, it would be directed towards those people whose children are not honoring them. I know they’re out there. I see them and hear them speak on a regular basis. The heartbreak is incredible. Not only that the children haven’t turned out the way they wanted to on the bigger scale, but also the fact that they are ignored on the smaller scale.
So I hope Father’s Day is a day of celebration for your family and that if it’s not this year that the future will look better.

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship
This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.
Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.
