Do you know my dad is a true storie about a little Orphane asking soldiers as they walked by ” do you know my dad”?

When I was three years old my mother and father had died and I was being raised at the SOS in Lebanon, an orphanage.  I remember that I so much longed to know things about my father and mother.  All I knew about my dad that he was a very funny man, he loved to joke and have fun and that he was in the Lebanese military.

One day I think I was about four or five years old when the Lebanese military was marching by the orphanage and a bunch of us kids were lined up at the wired yellow fence watching them walk by .   I remember yelling out to them as they walked by me asking them “  Do you know my dad?”  none would answer or even look my direction.  after about  fifty or more soldiers passed the spot where I was yelling one of the soldiers looked over my direction and nodded his head as to say ” Yes”  I took off running happy so happy that someone knew my dad.   I went and told other kids in the orphanage what had happened.   I thank God for that man.  I know he really did not know my dad he just did that because he felt sorry for me.  

Today I am still asking people ” Do you know my Dad?”  this time I am not asking about my earthly father but I am asking do you know my heavenly Father.  You see I grew up without a mom and dad but God Has kept His promise to me.  He said I will never leave you as orphans .  He Has been my Father. 

I have made Jesus Christ as my Lord and savior and I am no longer an orphan but I have a Father that will never leave me and is always with me. He has filled my heart with His love and I am so happy I have Him to lean on.  I would like to introduce you to Him if you will allow me to be your friend and share with you what Jesus Christ Has done for me.  God bless you .
