My husband, as a loving father himself, knew that daughters especially need that strong yet somehow gentle love that a father provides. He knew that my daddy had given me that, and I guess he thanked the good Lord for that grace and restoration as much as I did.
So just know, Fathers,
Your daughters and sons need you. Their hearts hold a place only your love can fill. Daughters need a good example of the kind of man they should choose to spend their life with, and sons need that example of the type of man they should be. But they also need you to represent a father here on earth so that they may better understand how much their Heavenly Father desires to hold, protect, and love them. Don’t underestimate the power you have in your child’s life. It’s never too late to step up, but I can promise regret for breaking your child’s heart is not something you want to carry.
Thank you to the men who remain present in your children’s lives, creating in them a heart that knows love in a beautiful and special way.
