Thank you, Undine. My father is a.... complicated man. He's a man who has attended church every Sunday for as many years as I can remember (I'm 47), but as we all know, faith is more than about just showing up to church.
I know that life does not end when my body dies. But I don't believe my father has the same understanding. I wish I could give him that knowledge and comfort, but faith comes from within.
Thankfully, my mother does not have the same fear and lack of faith. it was that faith that I believe allowed her to get her fear under control and listen.
Pray for God's love and peace upon him; may he be strengthened in the inner man and for his faith and trust in God to grow. May he come to know the height, breath and length of God's love. Daily Bible reading helps, Bagster's Daily Light with morning and evening readings are wonderful :)
