Fatherhood


This my fourth Father's Day without my Dad... I am sad about not being able to see him today, but his legacy and training run deep through our family. I believe he would agree with the following, and modeled it during his lifetime.

7 Aspects of Fatherhood

1. Provider – in order to prepare for your children’s future

2. Protector – our children are priceless – We  must be their defense

3. Leader – loving them by giving direction and communication

4. Authority - teach to honor and respect

5. Teacher - truthful lessons about God and life

6. Example - living it out every day. It is what you do consistently.

7. Friend - You like to be around them and them you - a trusting relationship.

Our relationship with God stems off our relationship with our Father or Father figure. Work on these aspects of fatherhood - even if you are not a Dad you'll be a better role model!

Happy Father's Day!
