Biblical Principles and The Role of the Father: My reflections after today's Sermon on The Challenge of Christian Fatherhood...for sharing.
There no such thing as short quality time. You can't have quality time if you are not willing to spend enough time.
Godly fathers understands that God provide. The Godly father in providing for his family puts his trust and finds security only in God. Godly father puts God first!
Godly fathers honours wife and children. Man does not stand alone. Your wife is your fortress! Without your wife, there's no family. Love your wife and children without conditions. The relationship with our children is not a one way street. Don't adopt a top down relationship. It should not be a one sided relationship. Bring up children to know the Lord the same way we know the Lord ourselves.
How? Don't focus on teaching just the relevant things of the world, e.g. passing exams, being forceful and confident, skills to survive the tough world we are in today, etc. Christian values matters.
You can't teach anything you don't have. Lead by example. Your children learn what they see and not what you tell them.
Happy Father's day to all Daddies!

I'm "24" today!
Today mark my "24" years in this world. It has been a wonderful ride so far. As I look forward to my next "24" years, I will remind myself to focus on enhancing the quality of my life. The quality of my life is not defined by my career success or my bank account balance. The quality of my life is determined by 3 important things.
The quality of my life is determined by the quality of my thoughts. I am what I think. My thoughts will influence what I do or behave. I will continue to cultivate my mind, body & soul. I am confident that if I cultivate my mind intentionally, it will blossom beyond my expectations. I will keep learning and see setbacks or failures in life as opportunities for personal expansion & spiritual growth. I will always be better and wiser today than yesterday.
The quality of my life is determined by the quality of the relationships around me. I will cultivate meaningful and rich relationships at home and work. I will treasure my 3 ladies at home, love my parents & siblings, and be a caring and supportive friend & colleague.
The quality of my life is determined by the quality of my contribution. I will continue to do my best serve others and be a good coach to my family and the ones I lead. I will elevate others, practice acts of kindness, give to those who ask, sow seeds to help others grow and succeed. When I am at work, I will give 100% and add value no matter where I am deployed.
Lastly, I hope to get to know god better because I want to be born again. When I die physically, I will live on spiritually. :)
Happy "24th" birthday Jimmy. You have a long way to go....and I'm not complaining:) The purpose of life is a life of purpose.
