His mother quit the marriage before he knew her. As the first born, growing up with two other wives and their children, the only love he found was eventually through the security guard in the tertiary institution he attended. He later gave his life to Jesus but was still wrestling with how to reach out to a dad who was not there for him in those lonely hateful years, when we met.

?Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?…For I am persuaded, that neither?things present, nor things to come?,nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God?? ? Romans 8: 35,38-39 (KJV)

Forgiving those who hurt us is a condition for making heaven.
Let the Son shine in your heart daily.
