  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 today,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: as we're leading up to Father's Day, I think about
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: fathers who are missing their children. Heavenly Father, today may
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: come before you with hearts full of compassion as we
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: lift up fathers who are carrying the heavy burden of
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: being separated from their children. Lord, Some are separated by
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: miles and distance, Some are separated by circumstances beyond their control.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: Some are separated because of broken relationships, misunderstandings, or past mistakes.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: And others are carrying the unimaginable pain of losing a child.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Father.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Regardless of the reason, you see every hurting heart today.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: Lord, You know the.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Ache that exists within a father's soul when he cannot
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: be near his chiildren. You know the empty spaces where
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: memories live. You know the birthdays miss, the milestones unseen,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: the conversations long for, and the moments that can never
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: be recovered. You hear the prayers whispered at night, and
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: you see the tears that many fathers shed in private
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: when no one else is around.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: Father. Comfort every hurting father.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Wrap your loving arms around him and remind him that
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: he is not forgotten. Let him know that what you
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: see you see his love. You see his concern, You
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: see his sacrifices, and you see his desire to be
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: present in the life of his children. Even when others
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: may not understand his pain, you understand completely.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Lord.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: Strengthen him during difficult moments, when father's day approaches and
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: emotions become overwhelming, be his peace. When lowliness tries to
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: settle into his heart, remind him of your presence. When guilt, regret,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: or disappointment try to take hold, Remind him him of.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Your grace and mercy.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Father, help him to trust you with the things that
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: he cannot control. Their situations he cannot fix on his
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: own doors he cannot open by himself, and wounds he
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: cannot heal through his own efforts. Teach him to place
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: those burdens into your hands and trust that you are
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: working even when he can't see it. Lord, where restoration
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: is possible, you make away open doors for healing. Conversation,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: soften herden hearts, remove pride and bitterness and resentment. Bring
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: reconciliation where there's been division, Restore trust where it's been broken.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Let fathers and children find their way back to one
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: another through your grace and your healing power. And Father,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: we especially lift those grieving the loss of a child.

  Speaker 1: There are no words that can fully ease that kind
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: of paid, but Lord be near them, Carry them through

  Speaker 1: moments of sorrow and grief and longing. Remind them that
