Happy Fathers Day
Contributed By the captivating Mrs. BoomerJeff
The Christian husband has a high standard to live up to…It is Jesus, himself…giving of himself sacrificially out of LOVE!
Across America and the world wonderful Christian husbands and fathers strive to love selflessly as Jesus did. This selfless love that Jesus modeled for husbands and fathers is the only reason Ephesians can also tell wives to “submit” It is no risk to submit to a compassionate, loving, self sacrificing man. So men actually have the harder job in Christ’s call!
None of us accomplish the beauty of a Christian marriage in our own strength. Temptations and selfishness are always in our way!
Thank God that He is a transformer! He transforms us all into closer examples of Jesus as we SUBMIT our lives to Him. Wonderful Christian husbands and wives bathe in PRAYER!
We are unable to become wonderful to others without the ministry of the Holy Spirit who honors our prayers and softens our hearts. Want to refresh your love for your spouse? Ask God to give you HIS vision….to show you HOW he sees them…and be self honest.
We are all flawed vessels…cracked pots…but through God’s eyes and Christ’s lens we are all beautiful in special ways. Have you looked intently to see the beauty in your spouse that God himself placed there and has shaped and moulded over the years? Without the Lord to shine through, we cannot develop this kind of eternal beauty. It is the Holy Spirit that makes us lovable.
We celebrate fathers this weekend! Thank you Dad’s everywhere. Without you we would be nothing…literally! My hat is off especially to the dedicated Christian father who models selfless love and God’s wisdom for his family to thrive! The world needs more wonderful fathers like you very special guys! The good new is that anyone can be special! Just ask Jesus for help!
Honor Dads everywhere this Father’s Day with PRAYER! Finding your way to Christlikeness can be a bumpy road! PRAY For DADS! If you are a DAD and struggling to be all you could be…BEGIN NOW praying for YOURSELF! God wants nothing less than greatness for you!
But remember…GREATNESS in the eyes of the WORLD is not necessarily GREATNESS in the eyes of GOD! His GREATNESS is ETERNAL! I went to a wonderful memorial recently for a Christian DAD. The most beautiful loving tribute I EVER saw from family and friends. During my sweet friends memorial we never learned what fortune he made-but we learned of priceless treasures he sent ahead to Heaven.
Being a great Dad or Granddad is not for wimps! It is a tough 24/7 selfless job…but the REWARDS are priceless! Dads everywhere we thank you for every sacrifice you make on behalf of your family. It does not go unnoticed…especially by God! Wonderful dads…You know who you are! We adore you and we pray for you always. thanking God for you!
Not so wonderful Dads… Jesus and the Holy Spirit are waiting for you. Find your greatness on your knees. BIG MACHO MEN PRAY! And hug!
And for those who feel they have no dad to honor this weekend, remember you have a Father in Heaven who is so proud to call you HIS! Our Father in Heaven is the very best father of all for all of us! He is perfect love and devotion and wants only the best for us.
Thank you Lord that wherever human Dads fall short, YOU are there to fill in the gaps and YOU never leave or forsake us! Dads are so important to our culture, our country, and our world. Pray for them in these difficult times especially.
PRAY a special prayer for all our military dads and their children. Be the glue Lord to connect them on Father’s Day.
When people look inside my life, I wanna hear them say…She’s got her FATHERS’s EYES…eyes that find the good in things.
