On this Father's Day I wake up no longer to little ones at my feet anxiously anticipating my reaction while passing along their love in form of pictures, cards, trinkets of love. Those smiles, the look of love in their eyes handing coffee, breakfast are stamped in my heart, mind and soul.
Today, all are adults. All are responsible, kind, loving adults. None are at my feet bright eyed anticipating affection from their Dad this morning still I wake hearing the little feet scuttle around. This morning I do know and understand that I am on their mind.
To the Fathers of today still with children I cannot reiterate enough your importance in your child's life. MIA fathers are in fact directly responsible in large part to the mindset about what it is to be a man and a man's role in society today. MIA fathers are directly responsible in large part for much of the confusion and hardships affecting all youth today.
Fathers today I encourage you to take the time to pray. Pray for the new fathers that God may give them guidance to help navigate their children through the increasing pitfalls that youth face today. Pray for the MIA fathers that they may find the courage to engage or reengage in their children's lives. Pray for all Father's that we may stand up and take back control the basic moral beliefs and practices that are obviously lost on society today.
In final, today Happy Father's Day to you and I am glad to share the feeling we get as our children shower their love upon us today!
