Reality: We all hurt

Unfortunality: My relationship with God is better then my parents relationship with Him

Truth: I love God, and I love my parents
Things are going to change... and it's scary but I know it's for the better.
I brought the situation with my dad to a few people's attention specifically, the ones that I trust and care about. Thank you for praying and your concern and love and patience.
I was letting this thing with my dad eat me up inside... and I knew I needed to deal with it because it was ruining the other relationships around me.

Three people had the most influence spiritually on this whole situation, this is what each one taught me:
1- By bringing this to the attention of my dad, he would hopefully have a wake-up call
2- I need to forgive him wether or not he changes. I thought to myself okay... I will but I want him to at least try before I do... but this time, I was given the wake-up call. Even though he's my dad, I still need to love him like I would anyone else in the name of Jesus
3- I was reminded to trust God with all of this, whatever the outcome, God is in control of this

I called my dad tonight. Throughout the conversation I realized that my dad has hurts too. We all have trust issues... we all need a Savior.
Reality: We're all trying to live in this world as best we can...
