We need Godly fathers and mothers for kids like we need oxygen to breathe.
Psalm 68:5, A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.
We have an issue in the world today with children being without fathers. There is an outright attack on the home. Not just the minority home, but all homes! It should alarm us that according to one article, as many as 25-percent of children in the U.S. live in households with a mother alone. That is over 18 million children who do not live with a father figure. Additionally, father-only households were noted at just 8 percent. Meaning the children’s mother was not present. That’s 33% of every home in America being a one parent home! Friend, Satan is having a field day with families!
We are living in terrible times when men and women are so selfish, they can’t see the need of being a parent to their children, husbands to their wives, and wives to their husbands! Both are more concerned with their cars, phones, and next relationship that they neglect the greatest gift that God has ever given them; their child. But praise God, He has never left us! He has never forsaken us! He is faithful, even when we are not!
Hey, Dad- Hey Mom, how about being the Christian God wants you to be! Quit being so stinking selfish and learn how to put God first, others second, and yourself last and you will find that joy you’re missing!
