A Tender Heart

In a previous post I had mentioned that I thought I should talk to my dad about forgiving himself.  Well, I did.  In that conversation he told me he would talk to God about it.  He did.  He called me a few days later, and told me he had done business with God, and given that stuff up to the Lord.  He said that he felt like a huge weight was lifted off him, and rejoiced with me about the new freedom he was now experiencing.

My dad is 80 years old.  What openness, what a tenderness he is displaying as one who comes before the Lord with open hands and open heart…and an open mind….to shed every weight and restriction that might keep him from being all that God wants him to be.  (Mark 10:15)
