Welcome to our daily rosary meditation. Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Amen. Let's call to mind all those we've promised to pray for.

Everybody knows that Father's Day gifts tend to be pretty awful.

The little self-made cards, the ties with the weird patterns, and worst of all, the world's greatest dad on mugs and hats and t-shirts.

Obviously these are not the things a dad would go out and by himself.

I've never said, you know, what I really need?

A world's greatest dad hat. It's high time people knew the truth. But dads are grateful for these gifts because of the love they signify. But

has this ever happened in your family? While the kids are giving the gifts, they actually

start fighting. Maybe they fight about who gets to give their gift first, or one

kid makes a nasty joke about another kid's gift, or the youngest Or one

makes a nasty joke about another kid's gift, or the youngest kid wants to help dad unwrap, and that makes the older one mad.

That really ruins the whole feel of the thing.

Dad isn't looking forward to these gifts. ruins the whole feel of the thing.

Dad isn't looking forward to these gifts in the first place.

He's looking forward to the beauty of the moment.

And the beauty of the moment, well, it's wrecked when the kids start complaining and fighting.

This is kind of worth thinking about when we start meditating on how we should try to please the Heavenly Father and what type of gift we're trying to give

our Heavenly Father.

Our Father who art in heaven, hollow would be your name. Thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us the stay our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us and

lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil, Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou, among women, blessed
