The Roll of Father

Father means so many things. To my son Spencer, who is adopted, He has learned a lot about this. You see before he came to this mortality he lived with his Heavenly Father. He came into this world thanks to his birth father, and then he came to us where I became his father through the process of adoption. Then on October 31, 2009, Spencer decided that he was ready to be born again into a new family, that of Christ. So, now Christ is the father of his Eternal life. Each father has a roll to play, each father has contributed to who Spencer is, and each father wants him to succeed...to reach a new level of good. Each father has made sacrafices just for him. And each father will continue to guide him through his life. And each father will watch with interest how Spencer teaches his own children how to be better than himself.
