Three Men and a Lady

The Creator sat in heaven and awaited for the deliveries on the cold November day.

One little soul was waiting. He chuckled to Himself. Where would He put this one?
He realized she would need the most patient man to call "Daddy".
Hmmmm. He knew the perfect one.

This man was a man after His own heart. This man sought the face of his Creator and loved his wife and his first daughter. This man was the perfect father for this little bundle of demands.

Strong.
Godly.

Kind.
Firm.
Faithful.
Devoted.
Steady.

Hero.

Daddy.

My dad- the most wonderful father to my sister and myself. He has always reflected our heavenly Father. He is an amazing and passionate follwer of Christ.

I remember family devotions out of the Big Family Story Bible. I remember prayer times. I am so blessed to have learned the power of prayer from such a giant in the faith as my dad! Wow! Did God smile on me when He allowed this man to be my daddy!

It was 18 years later, and the Creator knew this was the time for the second man to enter her life. He had this moment planned before they were both born. His timing was everything. His timing was perfect. This was the moment. This was the place. This was His Divine Will.

This man was a man after His own heart. This man sought the face of His Creator and would love his wife and his children. This man was the perfect to be man number two in her life.

Rusty.
Handsome.
Funny.
Chivalrous.
Godly.
Passionate.
Nurturing.
Compassionate.
Loving.
Kind.
Firm.
Faithful.
Devoted.
Steady.

Hero.

Husband.

My husband, my best friend, my soul mate. He is the most wonderful father to our children. He is such a strong, yet compassionate soul. He always reflects the love of the Father and is the absolutely the most amazing man I have ever met! Wow! Did God smile on me when He fashioned this union in the heavenlies!

It was 30 years after that November delivery. She had waited a long time for this day. Now was the time for man number three to be introduced to her. Today she would conceive. Today the Creator would continue the godly legacy for another generation. His timing was everything. His timing was perfect. This was the moment. This was the place. This was His Divine Will.

Nine months and he was born- a healthy, handsome baby boy.
This will be a man after His own heart. This young man will seek the face of His Creator and will love his mother, and one day love his wife and his children. This man will be the perfect man number three in her life. This man will be her only son.

Wow! Did God smile on me when He gave my Jordan to me as a son!

Three men and a lady.

Blessed beyond measure.
Happy beyond words.
Fulfilled beyond understanding.
Thankful for eternity for my three men.

Happy Father's Day, to my awesome, wonderful Dad!

Happy Father's Day to the father of my children, my soul mate!

I love you all!
