This week we celebrate Father’s Day. A day set aside to give specific tribute to all fathers especially the good ones. Seldom do we give good fathers the recognition they deserve; we are so busy praising only mothers. But fathers are just as important as mothers. You see. The family is much better when the fatherly image is portrayed, and the children have a good father to emulate. I have been blessed to have three daughters: Catrina, Robin and Janee’ and two grandchildren: Sinai and Aaron, Jr.
Fathers are also loving, kind and full of compassion, and they demonstrate it through loving care for their children. God thought enough of mothers to introduce his Son to us through a mother. He thought enough of fathers to give birth to woman by extracting a portion of Adam to make Eve the woman. On top of that, God is symbolized as “Father.”
It seems that properly honoring fathers is fastly becoming a thing of the past. Fathers are taken too much for granted and shoved into the background of family affairs. While mothers get almost all the affection and credit for everything. Fathers want to be loved as a part of the family too. Not just as the moneymaker for the family, but as a part of the family. Don’t just take their pay checks and say good-bye to them. We should love them and make them a part of the family. Father’s hands are still the gentle and strong hands that make the family complete, guiding, helping, teaching and giving the feeling of family security that a child needs so very much in order to grow into well balanced maturity. Wives may work and help to provide for the family, but they are most happy when their husbands work to provide security for the family.
