Just imagine, oh, well, the perfect father would be loving, he'd be kind, he'd be an encourager, he'd be your biggest cheerleader, he'd bring you up in his lap and hug you, and that is a picture of your heavenly father.
He's not just a magnified version of your earthly father who disappointed you or hurt you.
He is otherworldly.
He is different.
He is the perfect father.
And I found that to be very helpful.
You know, we did take a car trip once.
I was a teenager at the time.
Took a car trip from Chicago to Phoenix, Arizona to deliver a car for my brother, who was a student at Arizona State.
And that was kind of nice.
I learned some things from my dad on that trip that he'd never talked about before.
But it was just a very cold experience.
And again, I take a lot of the blame.
Did you ever rekindle that relationship?
He died before I was able to reconcile.
You know, it was funny because I was at the wake for my dad.
And these men began to come up to me.
And they would say, are you Lee?
And I said, yeah.
He said, oh, your dad was so proud of you.
