Colossians 3:21 NASB "Fathers, do not antagonize your children, so that they will not become discouraged." And we wonder why we get ties each year?! Today's Verse speaks to us fathers, in fact all week will be relating to fathers as we head into Father's Day! I have run into men who look at God in how they relate to their earthly fathers. Sadly, many men, who are called fathers, don't live up to the responsibility of owning that title. Therefore, the children of us men, who fall short, transfer those feelings to God our Father. We need to break that chain, not so we get better gifts on Father's Day but so our children have a better relationship with God the Father. God loves each of us as His Children, and those of us blessed to be fathers, grandfathers, fathers of the orphans, need to share the love of our Heavenly Father no matter what. No more excuses, let's be the father, that God is for us, just sayin' ! peace, tom
