A Father's Blessing
The Power and Privilege of the Priesthood

"One of the greatest privileges the Lord has bestowed upon men is the authority to act in His name in the service of others."

As an Air Force pilot, Kenneth M. Page draws upon his knowledge of flying to create the Parable of the Beacon, in which he compares fathers' blessings to spiritual beacons. "A part of us yearns for things spiritual, for a sense of direction in life, for that heavenly beacon to guide us home."

Page believes that many fathers don't recognize the importance of such blessings in raising their families, "and, as a result, end up offering them spiritual crumbs while foregoing the feast to which the Lord has invited us."

Using personal experience, the experiences of others, and examples from scriptures and Church history, Kenneth Page reminds us how wondrous the gift of a father's blessing can be in the lives of his family members -- children, spouse, and the priesthood holder as well. "Through priesthood ordinances we can see God's power, wisdom, and infinite goodness . . . in our lives . . . We can feel His gentle touch and guiding hand helping us through the mists of darkness until that precious fruit of the tree of life is within our grasp."
