How to be a Better Father – Father’s Day Devotional

Dear Blogger Friends,

How to be a Better Father – Father’s Day Devotional
I can agree with Terence Chatmon as he describes on how a child might not receive positive assurances if the father does not spend much time with his child because of a broken marriage or business travel, or whatever it may be, yet the number one way to be a better father is to make sure that in every single interaction he has with his child, assuring him or her of his love for the child as he mentioned in the Crosswalk devotional text.
 
As I meditated upon what the apostle Paul says, “Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord” (Ephesians 6:4) on this Father’s Day, I ponder on how children need to know they are loved, and loved enough to want what’s best for them, which means the occasional course correction. Fathers who are absent may be afraid to punish, believing it will drive their children from them, yet this could not be further from the truth, and children know the discipline comes out of love for true love loves unconditionally and it comes with accountability.
 
How could you as a father assure your child of your love for him or her today?
 
Happy Father’s Day!
