Title: A FATHER IS THE ANCHOR OF HIS FAMILY Post by: Soldier4Christ on March 28, 2006, 05:25:08 PM A FATHER IS THE ANCHOR OF HIS FAMILY
A child won't likely find A Father in God above, Unless an earthly father Models God's pure love, By what he may say and What he may do, Anchored by faith, Christ being the glue. ...bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord. Eph 6:4 Title: Re: A FATHER IS THE ANCHOR OF HIS FAMILY Post by: Soldier4Christ on March 28, 2006, 05:27:14 PM FATHERHOOD
When I think of what a Father means, I think of what I'm not. And I can't pretend to comprehend, all the lessons you have taught. I have always dreamed of a Fatherhood, that I would undertake. Yet this blessing of God has passed me by, but all for Heavens sake. It takes a special kind of man, to win at Fatherhood. Like a man who stays through thick & thin, like every Father should. Providing for the ones he loves, through sacrificing years. Not giving up in trying times, regardless of his fears. A teacher with his very life, to guide his children well. Forgiving them, mistakes they've made, quoting wisdom when they fail. Knowing that a Fathers job, don't end at eighteen's door. And examples that you set for them, will live forever more. So as I think upon these traits, I guess the Lord knew best. He must have known I'm better off, with just an empty nest. But if one day he sees me fit, to bless me with a Son. I pray to God, I lead him well, like you have always done. Written by..Timothy Jon Barrett Written for.. William R Barrett |
