So I woke up early (typical Sunday) and was the first to arrive at church. It was a quite ride in and while I felt tired I was in a great mood. It was a little after the worship team showed up and I was working with the tech team about morning details that Elizabeth and my kids got there. Bethany (5 yrs) came bouncing in and was quick with a “Happy Father’s Day”.
Every year Elizabeth and the kids make a big deal out of the day for me. It has always been a great and relaxing day. It was looking like today would be like the others. However, something really weird happened to me during worship. It was kind of surreal but for some reason the purpose of my day got turned on it’s head. Something struck me differently today during a video clip called “Team Hoyt”. I got kinda teared up as I realized that I didn’t want my kids to do anything for me today but I sure wanted to be a better dad. I felt like if anything, on Father’s Day I should really step it up and be the best dad ever.
If you have never heard of the Hoyt’s you have to see this clip:
