Ode to the Surrogate Father

The surrogate father is the father who steps in the place of the absentee father. These men are the most brave, kind and makes the most sacrifice. They put their needs aside for a child that does not share their bloodline. Surrogate fathers step in when no one will. They don't see children as a problem, a priority, they see children as innocent littl human beings that need guidance from a strong, positive lead. They are not perfect people, who make perfect choices but they make sure children learn from their mistakes. The surrogate father is a blessing because he doesn't have to be your stepfather. He could be your uncle, Godfather, Cousin, Pastor, Mentor, Counselor. Father does not just mean someone your mother was married to or got her pregnant with you. It is the man that stood beside you and behind you. Taught you and was always there for you. So do not be bitter on this Father's Day for lack of a biological father. Smile and praise God for the one who stood in his place.
