Spirit Breakfast 🍞☕ 29/4/2020
Topic: Fathers promote, not provoke.
Colossians 3:21 (Amplified Bible)
[21]Fathers, do not provoke or irritate or fret your children [do not be hard on them or harass them], lest they become discouraged and sullen and morose and feel inferior and frustrated. [Do not break their spirit.]
The role of a father to his his children is that of a source. Many don't understand this.
A child draws majority of his attribute and character from the father.
As fathers, you are a source of encouragement, motivation and support to your children.
Your words become the foundation upon which they build their lives. Therefore, it is important we watch how we speak to our children.
This is also true for those who occupy a father figure all across different walks of life.
There are those who look up to you as a father figure and the way you relate with them plays a significant role in their journey to greatness.
The father is the provider of all necessary to sustain the life of his children. He is their promoter, not their provoker.
Ask yourself today, am I really promoting my children (biological, spiritual, etc) by providing what they can build upon or am I breaking their spirits by constantly harrasing them?
Have a Graced day.
