This morning everyone and welcome back to another morning with the masters who are devoted

ourselves to the Lord daily with you.

It's just me against a folks for a very exciting reason, which I'm sure you'll hear about

very, very soon.

And on that note, I figured we would take a break from our, can I really overcome sin and

temptation devotional until Tori gets back.

And honestly, I think on this specific devotional for today, I feel really call just to spend

a little bit of time and prayer with you all.

And so I want to give you a little piece of encouragement and then I'm going to pray.

I remember I was having some issues with my dad.

This was years and years ago.

And I went to church for some help.

I went to like get prayer and all this stuff and basically the person who was praying over

me started asking some questions.

One of the questions they asked me was just like, Hey, what was your father's childhood

like?

And I was like, Oh, well, my dad's dad died whenever he was eight.

And he was like, Oh, I see.

So he never really had a father.

And anyways, we went down that goose egg and it just gave me such an empathy for my dad

and the things that he struggles with instead of judging him for who he wasn't.

I got to see him for who he really was, but not a judgey way, but in a loving way.
