that there are the one that I’m most
uncomfortable with is Father’s Day and I
wasn’t sure why until right now because
every father’s day that passed my father
was never there and it’s so hard to be a
son without a father now I’m a father
with a son and I searched the Word of
God so he can show me how it’s done
and I’m already halfway home but the
race is already won the blood has given
me victory and he still calls me son
it’s great to have this spiritual truth
but what if your example in the earth
messes up the truth of heaven what
happens when there’s a distance between
your father and your dad and I wonder
how many other people struggle with the
idea that there is a heavenly father
that actually loves us well on this
Father’s Day walk with me and let’s see
if we can’t figure out why it is that an
eternal God decided to call us his kids
even when we didn’t deserve it happy
Father’s Day
from faith to faith from glory to glory
[Music]
and now forever be chasing after you
I’ll be chasing after you I’ll forever
be chasing after you I’ll be chasing
after you the legacy of the fatherless
is a need for validation
I’m 44 years old and I still want my
dad’s approval I want him to be proud of
me from my earliest memories y’all keep
playing stay right there for my earliest
memories I knew mama was gonna be there
because my mama is always there then for
many of us mama is always there but
dad’s dad’s have to work especially at
my generation it’s different than it is
now but my mom and dad divorced when I
was very young and so I did not have the
luxury of relationship with my father
and I always wanted him to be proud of
me when he wasn’t around I saw him a few
times
and that stayed with me and Here I am at
44 years old and I still want my father
to be proud of me
I’m looking at the red exit sign waiting
for him to come through the door so he
could say I’m proud of you son look look
look look what God has done in your life
but he’s not coming
he died December 7th of 2000 in New York
City on the corner of East 23rd and 1st
Street and I was the last person to see
him alive and I sang hymns over his bed
and he was in a coma from complications
of diabetes and alcoholism neither of
which will get to me
[Applause]
[Music]
and for those who say but don’t you have
diabetes no sir no ma’am I don’t it came
to me but it doesn’t belong to me Jesus
died for that too
