A PERFECT DADDY FOR A DAY
By Pastor Randy Raynes

I have some simple questions
that I want to ask each male.
Their fictitious in their premise
But I ask them just as well.

If Jesus came to your house,
I wonder what you’d say.
If His coming was to make you
A Perfect Daddy for a Day.

If the morning started out
on the right side of the bed,
If you had no aching muscles,
and you had no aching head.

If you found that you weren’t sleepy,
in the sky there was no cloud.
If you found the perfect morning
and a day with no dark shroud.

If you knew that each decision
during the day that’s just begun.
Would be made with Heavenly wisdom
each decision one by one.

If you knew that every moment,
during this day of perfect ease.
Would be spent in sheer perfection,
to be used just as you please.

If Jesus came to make you
a perfect daddy for a day.
What would you do that’s different?
What do you have to say?

Would you treat your family better?
Would your voice remain in calm?
Would your words be spoken softly?
Would they be a healing balm?

Would your time be spent much different
with your children and your wife?
Would they find a better daddy,
and a home with much less strife?

If you were a perfect daddy,
and a perfect husband too.
Would your schedule look much different
In the things you “have to do”?

Would your children find you playing,
games with them upon the floor?
Would they find in you excitement,
instead of just an evening bore?

If the day was given to you,
with no bad things to confront,
Every conversation pleasant
Every thought and no word blunt.

Would you then find satisfaction,
In the hand that you’ve been delt,
With the family that God gave you
With the feelings that you felt?

Well, there’s no prefect daddies,
And there are no perfect days.
There are no perfect families,
And there are no perfect ways.

But God still wants to make you
The daddy that you ought to be.
The daddy walking with the Savior
The daddy found on bended knee.

So get up and face the morning,
And your children and your wife.
Be thankful to your maker
For the blessings of your life.

Even though you are not perfect,
And at times both good and bad.
The Lord has come to your house.
To make of you a better dad.

The Spirit moved at the NCOBF meeting at Caesarea Baptist Church. Thank you to all who were able to attend.

Continue to pray for Pastor Randy Englesetter, we received word that inflammation in his lungs has returned and his oxygen levels keep dropping with activity. He is still in the hospital and has been since December.

Pastor Dan Dornbirer will go on Friday for a scan. Pray that the tumor is gone or has shrunk enough for them to do surgery.

The need for both is great, but God is greater.

We received word today that Brother Al Page has passed away. He was a part of the NCOBF for over twenty years. He retired after 51 plus years in the ministry.
