Keep, my son, your father's commandment, and do not forsake your mother's teaching; always tie them in your heart, tie them around your neck. They will guide you when you walk; when you sleep they will keep you; they will talk to you when you wake up.
Proverbs 6: 20-22
Hello family and friends. Father's Day is approaching and this old lady thinks that we should highlight this date with great joy and enthusiasm, just as we do with moms. While it is true that some dads do not have the sweetness and affection of a mother, it is also true that they love their children and take care of them with great responsibility and good will. This is so true that some act as mom and dad at the same time. So I want to give some advice to all dads.
A good father inspires and helps his children grow so that they can overcome crises without losing heart. An exemplary dad always forgives and asks for forgiveness. A good dad listens and cultivates good communication with his children and communication unites them by breaking down walls and building bridges of understanding. When you improve communication with your children, you also improve relationships. Good communication requires serenity and conciliatory harmony, so you learn to communicate with love and those relationships will give you happiness and peace.
A child is already educated if he works, makes an effort, and learns to value everything. Loving them is not giving them everything in their hands, but helping them to shape their future and discover their potential. Teach your children to solve situations and cooperate at home; do not do what they can do, do not decide for them, do not forget that the language must be active, and set limits according to their age. Dialogue is very important, do not order them, and rather ask for the favor. Of course we all need discipline, but it must be with the example of what we preach to them; believe in them, reward them, but at the right time.
Teach your children to play any musical instrument or encourage them to take classes, support them in sports, read uplifting books with them, or encourage them to read for themselves. Don't forget: Happy children equal successful children. Do you know what will happen? They will not be in drugs, bad relationships, and brothels (sin bin), submerged in the Internet, mistreated or injured. They will have identity, purpose and vision, they will succeed and they will never make your head ache because your blessing will keep them from all evil. So pray for your children and bless them, hopefully daily. Once a week you should have a devotional with the whole family and talk about repentance, gratitude and blessings. They should never go to bed angry. You should go to church every Sunday with the whole family and teach your children to give and tell them that it is to honor the Lord.
A good dad is not a problem but a solution to problems. They must be spiritually responsible for their entire family. The best therapies for stress have always been and will always be those moments that we enjoy with our family, where we laugh out loud and hear stories from our grandparents. There we realize how lucky we are to have a bunch of loved ones to share with.
Keep in mind: Everyone talks about peace, but nobody educates their children for that; we educate them to compete without realizing that this is the beginning of any war. But when we educate our children to cooperate and be in solidarity with each other, that day we will be educating for peace.
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!
With love,
