February 7th is a hard day for me
it was the morning that my dad left this earth
leaving a huge void in my family, in my life, in my heart
lyrics from Tenth Avenue North's song "Hold My Heart"
will forever remind me of that day
"one tear in the driving rain, one voice in a sea of pain,
could the maker of the stars hear the sound of my breaking heart?
one life, that's all I am
right now I can barely stand
if you're everything you say you are
would you come close and hold my heart?"
It's been three years
so many changes
and his legacy lives on...
I see so much of him in my precious daughters
and feel his spirit with me always
I look in the mirror hoping for a glimpse of his quiet strength in my own eyes
February 7th
Abba Father, you received him
I pray for the courage to embrace the day
missing and loving my daddy
Father God, please come close and hold my heart
