“A father to the fatherless…” -Psalm 68:5

Many probably do not know, unless they have read either my testimonial book or my comic book, that I grew up in a family without a father in the home.

One of the things that I am so very grateful for was Little House on the Prairie.

The Lord used Micheal Landon, aka “Pa,” to convey to me what the family unit is all about (Psalm 68:6). Not only that but also what a father is to be to his children. I bet these actors and actresses all have heard this a million times over. The fact is, the Lord used him to be a “Pa” unto me, no doubt.

I cannot remember a day that I did not wake up empty and aimless when going to school only to come home to the only family I could relate to on so many levels. Well, last week, I had the opportunity to not only meet them but also to share the Gospel with them, based on Galatians 3:24.

Here is a collage of pictures from the event. Enjoy.

Everyone one of them was exactly what was perceived and extracted from the series: Sincere, courteous, and genuine. Thank you, Lord (Psalm 103:1).
