Hey dads !! And moms too !! Check this out 🔥🔥🔥Today God took Kelly and I to Proverbs 20 during our morning communion and He said, "Yesterday was Father's Day. Look at verse 7 and tell Me what that that means to you in light of being a parent." So, we read it out loud- Proverbs 20:7, 'The righteous man walks in his integrity; his children are blessed after him’- and we realized we had heard it many times and it seemed fairly self-explanatory. So we said, "Lord, it seems pretty straightforward. What do you want us to know today in this verse that we don't already know?" He said, "Glad you asked! I want you to know and I want you to tell people that a dad who is righteous in My eyes is one that points their children to My son, Jesus Christ, and teaches his family and models himself in MY ways." In the spirit of giving due honor, Kelly and I want to say thank you to the dads who are passionate about pursuing Jesus and have made Him the priority of their lives. They embrace their position as spiritual head of their home and earnestly seek the will of their heavenly Father. Thank you to the dads who realize that honoring their wives, second only to the Lord, is the best gift that they can give their children. They work diligently to provide for their families and intentionally create a safe space where their wives and children are liberated to become who God created them to be. Thank you to the dads who are present and positive participants in their children’s lives. They train their children to love and obey Jesus, take them to church, and speak blessings into their futures. They chase down fly balls, dress up for daddy-daughter dances, and tell corny jokes. Great dads can be found roughhousing in the backyard, cheering from the bleachers, tutoring at the kitchen table, helping a neighbor change a tire, holding his wife while she cries, raising his hands in praise and worship on sunday morning at church but also at home, he prays with his wife and his kids frequently, and a thousand other ways he brings honor to God in his life. To these dads, we want to say you are true heroes. May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you and give you His peace. May the Lord give you the desires of your heart and make all your plans succeed as you walk in the power of His might. Amen and amen PD
