He wrote!
My father wrote me back!
I am still in shock.
When I wrote him the letter I didn't really expect a response. But a certain part of me did expect a response. I hoped for a response. And then time passed and I figured he either didn't care or wasn't ready to respond.
But this morning I opened up my email and there was an email with the subject titled "Reconciliation."
In his email he said that he had read and re-read my letter many times. He said that he is determined to reconcile with me and my sister.
I feel like a completely different person, other than the father I knew, wrote me back. He didn't even sound the same. I detected humility in his words. Something I have never seen or experienced in my father before. He sounded truly repentant. Another first for him.
I think my father rediscovered Jesus while we were estranged. I can't wait to see if I am right!
Please pray for wisdom, strength, grace and love. For both of us.

Wow. The power of humility (both yours and his). I pray for restoration & reconciliation for you and your Dad. God has given us the ministry of reconciliation. I pray you walk in that ministry.
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 2 Cor 5:17-18
