Heavenly Father's Day
Years ago I decided I would enter a golf tournament, but there was a slight problem...It was a two-day tournament and that meant playing on Sunday which I didn't do. But I rationalized and told myself if I played badly Saturday I would withdraw and wouldn't play on Sunday. As luck would have I played great and was in second place with a great chance to win on Sunday. I arrived home excited about the chance to win the next day. Unfortunately Joyce didn't have the same enthusiasm I did. I told her I was going to head to the driving range to practice for tomorrow. Her only comment was take Warren with you. Well Warren was 3 1/2 years old and I didn't see a problem with that, I just brought a little golf club for him to hit some balls. And everything went great, I practiced and little Warren pounded golf balls with his little club. On the way home he said, "Dad that was fun can we do that again?" I said sure we can do that again. He replied, "Can we go tomorrow?" I said, "We can't play golf tomorrow because it's Sunday." Warren then asked, "Why can't we play on Sunday?" I replied, "That is Heavenly Father's Day." Warren thought for a second and then asked, "Only Heavenly Father can golf on Sunday? I then had to explain to him about keeping the Sabbath Day holy. Needless to say I didn't play golf the next or ever again on Sunday
