Choosing Forgiveness on Father’s Day
The romantic melody began to play and filled the air with a soft tune in the lush and green garden where her guests awaited. On cue, the bride began her descent down the aisle. The people gasped and marveled at her captivating beauty, her pure white gown glistened int he sunlight. Although the father of the bride was present, the bride walked alone. There was no one at her side to escort and give her away. This was determined by choice.
You see, a long time ago, Trinity’s father gave up this right to walk by her side over a selfish impulse. This once-in-a-lifetime chance her father lost forever.
Trinity is just one of the countless of women and adult children who have been unimaginably hurt by their fathers. To them, Father’s Day has lost its meaning. However, the only way we can truly experience freedom and healing from our pain is when we choose to forgive.
