I've recently been inspired to share a reassurance that I think
husbands and fathers need to hear more often.
Whether they are new or seasoned in marriage or parenthood, and whether they would admit
it publically or not, men need to be encouraged.
We’re conditioned to be strong… to never show
fear or sadness.
So sometimes our
greatest struggles with feelings of fear, doubt, inadequacy, or grief are held
in secret places so that we don’t appear weak.
That's why I’m sharing these 4 lessons I’ve learned over
the course of my time as a son, a husband and a father with you... in the
hopes that if you find them in a moment of need, you’ll be lifted.
If you can benefit from my experience, terrific! If not, maybe you know someone who needs encouragement... feel free to share with them, or more importantly; feel free to let them know that they are loved and supported right now... today. That knowledge can make the difference between restoration and devastation in a man's heart and a family's life.
1. God
may give you two strong arms, but at times it will feel like there’s no
strength left in them... rely on His and you'll be fine.
