FATHER:
This is dedicated to my Father Angel, to my Husband Frank, & to my husband's Father Frank ( RIP ):
Papa Angel: Thanks for always worked so hard to give me everything, but mostly, Thanks for your love, caring & for show me respect. I thanks my Lord for giving me you. I Love You...
Frank: Besides God & After my father, you are the best father in the world. I love you...
A father is someone who can never be thanked enough or shown enough appreciation for all that he does. . My gratitude for you, Dad, is always right inside my heart, for I do know that I have the world's best father.
What can you say to someone who has always been one of the most essential parts of your world; someone who took you by the hand when you were little and helped to show the way?
What do you say to someone who stood by to help you grow, providing love, strength, and support so you could become the person you are today?
What can you say to let him know that he's the best there is, and that you hope you've inherited some of his wisdom and his strength?
What words would you say if you ever got the chance? Maybe you just say "I love you, Dad..." and hope he understands.
God bless you always... Your girl...
Father's....
Solomon was blessed with a father - David - who cared about him and gave him instructions in matters of right living and wisdom. (Something that seems to be lacking in a great deal of families today, unfortunately.)
Here are some shocking stats about teens and dads (in our churches): --The average teen spends only two minutes a day in a meaningful dialog with a dad. --25% of these teen say they have never had a meaningful conversation with their dads - a talk centered on the teens interest, that is.
What can dads to open up the lines of communication? They can start by playing games with them, taking them places, hugging them, talking with them - just taking time with them and us it as an opportunity to instruct their kids on righteous living.
As a dad does these things, he will be teaching his children about values, people, life and God. Dads, your kids need your instructions and guidance. I pray that you will take the time to give them something worth listening to.
Thank God for fathers who not only gave us life, but also taught us how to live. Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.
--FEATURED POEM: A father who emulates God Is one who is faithful and true; And if he is honest and strong, His children will follow him, too. - Hess
