CFC RETREAT 2010
"THE FATHER HEART OF GOD"
By Eddie Lee
Allow me to share some memories with my father...
I remember chatting over lunch at Yu’s Mandarin on Saturday afternoons.
I remember Cubs games at beautiful Wrigley Field on my birthdays.
I remember my first time on the golf course where he wanted to show me one of his joys.
I remember the rustling sounds of the newspaper behind us as my brother and I played video games (he just wanted to be in the same room).
I remember finding him asleep on the sofa when I came home late because he wanted to make sure I got home safe that night.
I remember holding his hand for the last time before he lost his battle with cancer.
There are so many wonderful memories when I think about my earthly father. But the best part to me is that it is all only a glimpse of The Father Heart of God. If it is merely a glimpse, it leads me to wonder about the depth of our eternal Father’s love for us. How about you?
