I love being a dad. I honestly can’t even fully express how much joy my kids give to me.
I love just being with them, talking to them, and watching them become who God made them to be. It is such a privilege and a gift.
Last week I had the honor of taking with 20 dads or soon-to-be-dads about the fact that God has put the heart of a father in every man, and that every man, as he matures and grows closer to God, can’t help but see that heart come out - because God is our example and the ultimate Father.
They’ll embrace responsibility.
They’ll be present.
They’ll call out their children into who God made them to be.
They’ll lay a foundation for generations.
They’ll be a blessing to everyone around them.
Our nation and our culture is rejecting the call to fatherhood more and more as it rejects God. In the US today 1 of 4 children will grow up without a father of any sort in their lives. Childlessness is on the rise across every demographic.
The results of this are evident all over in our nation’s children.
My children know that they are loved and valued. That I pour my life into theirs so that, hopefully, they will go beyond where I have. That I have broken chains they will never have to wear.
And it is a privilege and an honor to do it for them.
