  Speaker 1: I am Sherry Mackie and it's time for us to
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: go to God in prayer. And as always, I invite
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: you to join along with me in prayer. And can
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: I be honest for a second. As we are leading
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: up to Father's Day this Sunday, my heart is breaking
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: the eye. I can't help but think about my Daddy.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: I miss him every single day. I miss my Daddy
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: and Father's Day is always a heavy and a hard
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: time for me. And I want to pray for those
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: that are like me, navigating Father's Day without Daddy. Oh Heaven, Father,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: today we come before you would send our hearts God
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: lifting up her fort son, every daughter who's navigating Father's
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Day without their dad. Lord. While many are celebrating with
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: phone calls and family gathering special moments, there are others
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: like me who are carrying a quiet ache deep inside
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: their hearts. There are those who would give anything for
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: one more conversation, one more piece of advice, one more life,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: one more embrace, or simply one more moment in the
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: presence of their fathers father. You see every emotion that
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: this season brings. You see the tears that are shed openly,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: the tears that are held back. You see the memories
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: that bring smiles and the memories that bring pain. You
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: know the empty spaces that loss has left behind. You
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: understand the grief that can surface even years later. So Lord,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: today we ask you to be the God of all comfort.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: Wrap your loving arms around every grieving heart. When the
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: loneliness feels overwhelming, remind them God that they are never alone.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: When memories come flooding back, let those memories be accompanied
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: by your peace. When emotions seem too heavy to carry,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: remind them God that you are carrying them. Father, thank
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: you for the fathers whose lives left a lasting imprint,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: fathers like my daddy. Thank you for the sacrifices they
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: made and the lesson since they taught, the values they
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: instilled in the love they shared. Thank You for every
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: encouraging word, every prayer they prayed, every life lesson they
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: passed down, in every act of love that continues to
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: live on through their children. Lord, for those who lost
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: their fathers unexpectedly like I did, bring comfort. For those
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: whose fathers suffered long illderness illnesses. Bring peace for those
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: whose relationships with their fathers restrained or complicated, or left unresolve. God,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: bring healing to the places that still hurt. Remove guilts,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: remove regret, remove bitterness and unanswered questions. God replaced them
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: with your grace, with your mercy, and with your healing touch. Father,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: remind every grieving son, every grieving daughter that while they
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: may miss their earthly father, they are never without their
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: heavenly Father. You are the everlasting Father. You are the
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: one who never leaves. You are the one who never abandons.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: You are the one who knows every need, every hurt,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: in every longing of the heart. Lord, let this Father's
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Day not only be marked by loss, but also by gratitude.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Help us God to celebrate the legacy that our fathers
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: left behind. Let the wisdom of faith, strength, character, and
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: love that we're deposited continue to bring fruit for generations
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: to come. And Father, Oh God, when the day feels difficult,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: surround God us with your loving arms. God, with family,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: with caring friends, with precious memories, and most of all,
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: your unmistakable presence. God, let us feel your comfort in
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: a real and personal way. God, we place every grieving
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: heart into your hands today, trusting you to heal, trusting
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: you to strength, and trusting you to sustain. Thank you, Father,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: of being the one who remains faithful through every season
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: of our lives. And Jesus speak Amen.
