Fathers,
You are called to be our discipline. Where would we be without your steady hand guiding us through our own folly?
You are called to be our teachers. Where would we be without your wisdom and direction?
You are called to be a steady aim, firing us into the world with careful precision. Where would we be without you to help us find our place in this world?
You are called to be repairers of broken streets. Where would we be without you to pick up the pieces when we are broken?
You are called to captain my ship, guiding me through adversity and leading me to adventure. How can I become a captain one day without you there to show me the way?
-Too many times we complain about the sad state of the youth in our culture, but we should be examining the state of relationship with Godly fatherhood and manhood that these youth have been exposed to/ nurtured by.
One of Satan's greatest victories in this world has been the removal of the Godly father from prominence in a child's life.
