It's been a few days since I've seen Dad. He came to my track meet and I spoke to him for a matter of minutes. He seemed to be in a good mood, but I was constantly wondering if he actually was.
A couple days passed since then. I called him yesterday to invite him over for lunch and was afraid. I knew that it was just a matter of time before he blew up on the phone in anger. Thankfully, he didn't.
I've noticed that I have an ongoing fear in relating to my Dad, it's constant. Every time I think about him or, more specifically, every time I think about contacting him fear overcomes me.
Proverbs 28:1 "The wicked man flees though no one pursues, but the righteous are as bold as a lion."
Pray with me that as I relate to my Dad I am able to overcome my fear of him through Christ, so I can show him grace and acceptance. Pray also that this fear would die so that I don't fear my heavenly father
