How about, “My husband is a good father because God is preparing him for me and our future children.”My husband is a good father because… (oops I don’t have one)
that’s a good idea. Thanks for the example of originality that I was lacking when I origionally posted.How about, “My husband is a good father because God is preparing him for me and our future children.”
My father was a good father because he knew when I needed him, and would quietly offer assistance/advice at always the “right” moment.My father was a good father because…

That’s what I always pray for my daughters, “Dear God prepare them to be good wives and mothers in the future and prepare their future husbands to be good husbands and fathers.” Then I go on to say, “But if Jesus is their future husband then just prepare my daughters to be good wives; Jesus will already be a good husband”.that’s a good idea.

That’s absolutely inspiring Black Jaque.My father is a good father because he was faithful, and at the same time he was the kind of guy you’d want on your side if you walked through a dark alley.
I guess I have a hang up on this. For whatever reason, I was bombarded by images of faithfilled men being milquetoasts. Sadly the priests were the same way. I was afraid to pursue faith too far because I thought it somehow turned you into a eunich (of sorts).
Now that I look back, I should have focused on the modeling my own father did.
TarAshly said:).sorry just a little vent there. i need some prayers yall. for forgiveness love and acceptance in my heart for my father.:crying:

This is a beautiful suggestion. I will begin doing this with my kids tonight—thanks Laura.Thanks AServantofGod
Since we were very little, we were taught to say three Hail Marys for pruity every night… one for us, one for our future spouse, and one for our family and friends… similar… but I really like this idea. Thanks!
