I feel led to bring up an issue that some of you won’t like. But like I have told you before, If telling the truth is going to keep you out of Hell. I am serving my Father well
Some of you are "fathers" . . .
But how many of you are really there for your children?
Our fathers impact our lives in more ways then we can imagine.
Little boys try to walk and talk like their father.
Little girls look up to their daddies to love them.
It is said that the love a father shows his daughter
more than likely will reflect on the type of man she marries.

Now that’s something to think about . . .
I am not here to put down Fathers in any way. I thank God for the men who are there to support their children. And I am not talking just financially.
Children need more than financial support.
They need to know that they are loved and protected by both parents.
Not all of us have grown up in a Christian home. It’s unfortunate that many people have a hard time understanding the love of God, because their Father's were alcoholics, absent, or abusive.

Some actions are not that obvious . . . They can be controlling, unkind, always at work or they just don't care how they treat anyone.
How can a man tell you he is a "Christian" and that he loves God, whom he cannot see but have"living"children
Whom he shows no love or even cares to see?
"He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love." -1 John 4:8
Some of these men blame the mother as the reason they are not in the picture . . . It’s time to stop lying. If you were man enough to make a baby, Be man enough to take care of what you help create.
I can hear some of you ladies going Amen . . . But let me bust some bubbles here. Some of you are the reason a man won’t come around their children. You are screaming and hollering before the man can even say Hello to you or his child.
"A fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards."-Proverbs 29:11
A few of you wont let the man see his child(ren) because he doesn’t want a relationship with you.
Some of you are even saying he can’t pick his child(ren) up because you can’t stand the new woman in his life.
Ladies,
If the father of your children has (re)married get to know the woman . . . You may like her.
No matter what you say she will be a part of your children lives.
So work on your relationship with him and her.
Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins.-Proverbs 10:12
If you are screaming at the man before he enters the room. Yes, he is going to turn around and leave. Try sitting down with him and talking things out."She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness..." - Proverbs 31:26If you are using your children to get a man back . . .If you are using your children to get a man back . . .
Stop what you are doing . . . ,
Get on your knees and ask God to help you . . .
Not only are you making a fool of your self, You are hurting your children.And you are putting that man before God.
"Thou shalt have no other gods before me." Exodus 20:3
If that man is meant for you let God work it out.
In the meantime, work on your relationship with God. He will be there for you when no one else will.
There is something else I have to say to the men. And I am not talking about all of you men. But, you know who you are . . . Men, When you are alone with your children without the mother present.
You are NOT baby-sitting.
A baby-sitter is someone who watches a child in the absence
of the parent(s).
The time a parent is alone with his / her child is called "quality" time.
To the parents who have sons’ who aren’t taking care of their children.
Sit your son(s) down and talk to him.
Don’t uphold him in his mess.Your grandchild will be the one who suffers in the end."Train up a child in the way which he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it". ~Proverbs 22:6It’s our responsibility as Christians to "be love’. No, I didn’t mean "to be loved" . . .
I meant its time we start showing what love is.It’s our responsibility as Christians to "be love’. No, I didn’t mean "to be loved" . . .I meant its time we start showing what love is.
If you know a young person who needs an encouraging word . . . You be that word.
Let that child see the God in you.
Take the time to talk to one of your elderly neighbors.
Think about all the wisdom and knowledge they have to share.
See if the single parent down the street can use some of the stuff you are getting ready to put in a yard sale or trash because you think giving someone something will make them have more than you...None of us are perfect.
We have all made mistakes. But its time we start taking care of one another.
Especially one of His most precious gifts.
Our children
