Father’s Day Briefing

‭The father of godly children has cause for joy much more than a worrisome, ignorant child void of the truth. Many times the truth is what’s lacking in the family. Parents that over protect everything about their children even at the cost of them learning that which is necessary for life survival, are doing a disservice to their children. The trials and errors we go through are life lessons only obtained by experiencing the trouble. Helicopter moms and controlling dads, do more harm to their children than they realize. It is a pleasure to have wise children that can fend for themselves at their level, and beyond. It is vitally important they go through normal verbal fights with others, and experience disappointments often enough to develop a thicker skin in their make-up, their character. Fathers and Moms we must allow our children breathing room to grow up. Letting them go through stuff you know will help them to develop into wise children, thinking for themselves, and not being under total parent dominance. Fathers are to set the tone as a constant stable force in the lives of their family members. Loving our wives as Christ loves the church, (Ephesians 5:25) and not discouraging our children to the point of them wanting to leave home (Colossians 3:21). There is a balance to obtain and a fight worth fighting for when it comes to any father’s children. Our kids think the world of us dad, use that to motivate you into becoming a better father, which will make you a better man.
