That God created us to be and that our kids, family, and the world needs us to be.
What a great time with my wife the past couple of days as we attended a marriage conference together. Putting God first and allowing Jesus to be the center of our relationship and then making sure to spend time together and invest in our relationship, just works to make us better Christians, better spouses, and…
As I continue this journey of blogging about and for dads through daily devotionals I have been able to find, connect with the publishers, and get approval to share my thoughts and insights from reading them, I have found this dad devotional called The Daring Dad. The image that goes along with it is so telling…
As I awoke this morning to my watch alarm (which I am usually already up for 2 hours by then) I am still feeling sick. Ever thought of tolerance as a positive thing or heard people speak of tolerance as a positive thing? Ever thought or heard of compromise as a positive thing or wonder…
As we continue this year the next plan I have selected to go through is “Finding Dad” which is a 7-day devotional from the Bible.com site by Luke Cunningham and published by The Ark Church. It caught my attention as I was looking for my next dad related devotional because it says in the introductory paragraph : Jesus…
An exciting morning as I prepare to jump into day 2 with an email of encouragement from Jarrad Lopes. Day 1 was incredible and am so excited to get to jump into day 2 and see what we can learn from God’s Word and this devotional. Today’s devotional comes with the following description: This 7-day…
Pray to start your day, end your day, and most importantly to help you get through your day! In my daily devotional today from Daniel, the importance of prayer was elevated in my mind when the angel Gabriel spoke the following to Daniel: ‘I went on praying and confessing my sin and the sin of…
As we come to the close of our current devotional and consider the power of words while being a husband to our wives, a dad to our kids, and leaders in our homes and communities, let’s take a moment to reflect and do a checkup. Let’s be the dads who aren’t just going with the…
Lucky 13, a day and a number that have been so precious and special to me. Many have bad views of 13 but for me it began with the incredible blessings of marriage and years later a child. As today begins down one from yesterday as we had to say goodbye and preparing to make…
The right way? Firstly, as we start this day and are faced with challenges, opportunities, trials, and even troubles, our response to them will make a big difference. Furthermore, we need to consider the right way to handle it and then do it to receive and walk in the benefits of it. Finally, ever considered…
As we start this new day after Christmas, let’s start it with kindness! For example, let’s be the ones who start today with gentleness and compassion towards others, especially our wives and kids. Today leave negativity with more negativity somewhere else, out of sight and out of mind. Don’t retaliate! As a result, choose to…
As today began and the search for the next devotional to read the words that came to mind were “no regrets”. As I consider the reality of the importance of being the dad God created me to be for my wife’s sake, my kids’ sake, and this world’s sake, living life as Jesus purposed to…
Ever wondered if God’s timing was perfect? Ever wondered if God’s plan for you was good and for your good? Ever wondered if God’s calling might be connected to what He wants you to do today? Well, the reality that I am writing this post is God’s calling on me to start Be The Dads….
We’ve spoken about priorities for life before and today we are considering what the best way to live is. Reflecting on and then digging deeper into our top priorities, let’s consider what is the best way to live. God’s Word tells us that all the commands can be covered and would be of top priorities…
As the week is drawing to a close, a new month begins. Adopted or birthed. A new start to the month on the theme of how some dads get to have kids and others dads get to choose kids. Ever considered how being a dad can happen in a couple ways? There is what some…
Today we continue the devotional Father Like The Father. I appreciate God’s leading and sorting of articles so that the topics and instruction we can get around be the dads are on point and speak the truth in love. I have been blessed with my interaction with them as they gave guidance and support for my…
