“O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water.” (Psalm 63:1 NIV).

We all find ourselves seeking after something at one point or another.

Looking to the Father.

“Fatherhood is a vocation in God’s service, to be not held lightly or frivolously, but with the serious determination of serious men.” –Father Lawrence Lovasik

This precious little girl was completely dependent upon others to provide her with food, protection and love. I was determined to do just that. I was convinced that my love for her would guarantee that I would succeed Read More
