On June 3, 2024, my Dad entered the Lord Jesus’ presence. His passing was sudden. We still don’t know the official cause of death. I spoke with him just a few hours before his passing while I was traveling. He asked me to tell him when I made it safely to my destination. Before I arrived, he was in heaven.
In the last phone call I had with him, my Dad told me, “Bill, the Gospel is so simple. Christ died for my sins and rose again.” I will forever be grateful that some of his final words to me were the glorious Gospel of Christ.
Father’s Day has been hard. I haven’t been able to place the feelings. I have laughed and cried. I have wept bitterly. I have confessed sin. I have had regrets and joys. It has been a roller coaster.
Most of all, I have rejoiced in the cross of Christ, His resurrection, and His coming again. Revelation 21 cannot come soon enough!
