Accept your children as they are, which will encourage them to be all the Lord wants them to be
Bible-base your parenting, marriage, job, relationship, thoughts, and daily life
Compassion is not a sign of weakness but one of the great strength in the Lord, whose heart goes out to you
Discipline in love. It is necessary tool for a father who loves his children
Example. Your actions and words have a powerful, lasting effect on your children. Pattern your life after the Lord's since you children follow the pattern you leave them
Forgiven and forgiving is your heritage through Christ's gifts. Share the gifts.
God-fearing. Stand in awe of the ultimate Father as you father
Hope in the certainty of God's promises as you walk daily as a parent and as His dearly loved child
Interest in your children's interests says to them, "I love you!"
Joke around more. Lighten up!
Know your family - their needs, wants, joys, fears, likes, and dislikes
Love. Nothing more needs to be said
Mom-lover. Love your children's mother
No. It is a necessary word at times, but not at all times
Oasis. Create a godly home for your children that is an oasis in the midst of their wilderness days
Play!
Quake in God's presence. You are on holy ground
Rejoice! I will say it again, rejoice!
Servant father. You are called to a position of authority. You also were called to serve
Thankful. O, give thanks, father, for the showers of God's blessings
Undermine the plans that Satan has to undermine your family
Verify the love you have for your family. Do it daily in words and actions
Worship the Lord faithfully and joyfully with your family
X. Sometimes there are no words to describe the calling to be a godly father
Yearn to follow closer in your Savior's footsteps
Zest. Add this to your personal prayer list and to your life
