Dear Ryan,
May the Lord bless you and keep you all the days of your life. May His face shine upon you and grant you peace. May you always walk in His ways and follow His commands, for they are the path to true joy and fulfillment.
As your father, I pray that the Lord will guide you in all your decisions and protect you from harm. I pray that He will give you wisdom and understanding and that you will grow in the knowledge of His love and grace.
May the Lord bless your work and studies, and may you always be a light for Him in all you do. May you find favor with God and others, and may His blessings overflow your life.
I pray you will be a man of integrity, honesty, and compassion. May you be strong, and courageous and always stand up for what is right.
May you be a loving and faithful husband and father, and may your children and grandchildren rise and call you blessed.
Above all, may you know and experience the deep love and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.
May He be your rock and your salvation, your refuge, and your strength, all the days of your life?
With love and blessings,
Dad
