We have come this morning to give God the Praise for all that he has done in our lives.

God has truly been good to me, He brought me through all sorts of trials. Like the time when I turned over that police vehicle and was pinned under it, and doctors told me I would never walk again.

Then there was the time God helped me to talk the knife out of the hand of a 6 foot 7 Samoan who had just threatened the life of a college administrator.

So today I want to take this opportunity to tell my Heavenly Father, the Almighty Father of us all. "Happy Father's Day".

Then I want to let my Sons, Steven and Erik know that I love them, and say "Happy Father's Day".

And I shall not forget to wish my two son-in-laws; Raynardo and Carl "Happy Father's Day" for taking such good care of my daughters Michele and LaVon and their families.

And to all the Fathers, where ever you may be, we say "Happy Father's Day".
