Letter To My Dad

Dear Dad

With Father’s Day coming around again this year, I got thinking about the things I have learned from you over the years that I have been putting into practice in my own life. I wanted to share them with you so you know what kind of influence you have had on me.

You showed me the value of hard work when you worked tirelessly regardless of the situation.

You showed me determination when you didn’t give up in the face of adversity.

You showed me how to be wise with money by not wasting what money you had.

You showed me about integrity when you always paid your debts, even if it took time.

You showed me how I should treat a lady by how you treated my mother.

You showed me how I should love my children by how you showed love to me and my sisters.

You showed me the importance of being generous by helping me when I needed help.

You showed me about compassion when you helped people who were less fortunate than us.

You showed me how to be a defender when you protected those who were vulnerable.

You showed me about unconditional love when you loved people that were unlovely in the eyes of others.

You showed me to always look for the good in others by not giving up on me when I strayed from the path.

You showed me how to choose right from wrong by encouraging me to look in the Bible for Godly wisdom.

You showed me how I could have eternal life when you introduced me to Jesus Christ, the one who saves.

You showed me how to be a man by being the man in my life.

So Dad, I just want to say thank you for being a great father and role model to me.

Love from your son
David
