The Roots of a Father’s Love

If you have been reading about Sampson’s Hollow, the family that this land has been a part of for now over a hundred years, our love of the land and family should be apparent to all.

On this Father’s Day there we are flooded with nostalgia of the father’s who have been a part of our lives and those who have walked their daughter’s down the isle, and more.  We have extreme pride in the Father’s we have raised in our own 3 sons.

Of course I have to wish a special Happy Father’s Day to my sweet daddy. You’ve been in heaven now for twelve years. I think of you almost every day and I believe you are part of that “mighty cloud of witnesses” that God’s Word speaks of in Hebrews. We will be reunited one day in the not too distant future!

The roots of my father’s love are all around me.  Those deep roots of caring, compassionate, hard working principles put to work in everyday living is what has grounded us.  The seeds of the fruit are passed on to children and again we pray that deep roots of honor and integrity grow.  We give thanks for all we have learned from our Fathers.

From Our Father in Heaven, may His Word Bless you on this day and everyday.

The lovers of God will walk in integrity, and their children are fortunate to have godly parents as their examples. – Proverbs 20:7 

Dedicate your children to God and point them in the way that they should go, and the values they’ve learned from you will be with them for life. – Proverbs 22:6

Confidence and strength flood the hearts of the lovers of God who live in awe of him, and their devotion provides their children with a place of shelter and security. – Proverbs 14:26
