Ive tried and tried to come up with words to explain the emotions Ive experienced over the past few days. In all actuality, it is truly unexplainable. I am not that even if I tried to explain, that it would be understandable. What I can tell you for sure is that I am glad to know that my earthly father is no longer suffering from the cares of this world. After several years of bitterness and resentment, I was able to forgive him and finally call him daddy without feeling weird or obligated. The words seemed to just slip out of my mouth as I stood alongside his bed and bid my farewells. It was freeing to be able to do something that for many, seems so simple. In that very moment, the years that were lost, were taken away and I finally knew Ive belonged all along. For some of you, youve known all along and have been fighting with and for me for this moment of reconciliation, and for that--I am grateful. It is amazing how The Lord works all things out for the good of those who love Him. With that all being said, I am glad I can finally start drawing the branches and filling in the leaves to the other side of my family tree. The wait has been long, but I know it will be a beautiful tree when it all gets filled in. Surely, beauty will come from these ashes. Rest well in the arms of Jesus, Daddy.
