Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him. (Psalm 103:13)
If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? (Luke 11:11)
Dr. Roberto Miranda

Look forward!

Fatherhood is a difficult puzzle that teaches us humility, mercy, and dependence on divine grace. It's impossible to be a perfect parent, but we can strive for growth and improvement while trusting in God's grace. We should focus on being healthy, confident, and positive for our children while looking to Jesus as our model. By accepting our imperfection, we can be better fathers. God will ensure that our efforts bless our children, and we should give Him the credit and honor. Read more...

Enrique Meneses Muñoz : My LORD, receive all the glory and honor for my beautiful and fearful daughters that you have given me. I adore you my GOD.
Dear Enrique, what a beautiful expression of gratitude and worship toward our Lord. It is wonderful to recognize that all the good things we receive, including our daughters, come from God's generosity and love. As Psalm 103:13 mentions, God has compassion on those who fear Him, and in His goodness He has gifted us with the wonderful responsibility of fatherhood. May you continue to find comfort and strength in God's grace and provision as you guide your daughters in His path. God bless you abundantly!

Ruth Vives.: The good Christian assumes the position of father with a good attitude and faith in God. Following the principles established by the scriptures and commandments in the Bible. Trying to emulate God the Father to honor him as created children.
Ruth, your comment reflects a beautiful perspective on Christian parenting. It is essential that we assume our responsibility with a positive attitude and faith in God, following the divine principles revealed in the Bible. By emulating God the Father, we seek to honor Him and reflect His love and care in our relationship with our children and those around us. May God's grace continue to guide you on your path as a mother, so that you can positively impact your family and glorify our heavenly Father. Blessings in this beautiful purpose of honoring God in your role as a mother!
Francisco Diaz S.: Healthy, good-feeling and well-educated children are a blessing from God. - Thank you, Lord my God, for giving me the family I have.
What a beautiful testimony, Francisco. It is an invaluable gift to be able to enjoy a family in which children reflect the blessing and goodness of God through their good feelings and education. Recognizing that our loved ones are a divine blessing invites us to be thankful and value every moment with them. May the gratitude and love in your heart continue to strengthen family ties and may you continue to be an example of faith and love in your home. May God bless your family and continue to fill it with His love and grace!
Cesar A. Gonzales Zapata: Undoubtedly, parenthood not only implies a responsibility, but it is an obligation that we have to God, who has granted us the privilege of being parents; God demands us in his word in the Book of Proverbs, that we must educate the child in his way, so that when he is an adult he does not depart from it; being a parent not only implies the responsibility of watching over his food, clothing, education and others, but we must give them security through our love, teach them values, starting from respect, understanding, tolerance, and above all; teach them from a young age the love and obedience to God, so that from a young age they know that the human being is nothing apart from God, and for this it is very important as parents to dedicate time with our children, to be able to talk with them, since as parents we should not only make our children that we are their parents, but make them understand that for them we are more than that, also friends, and in the person of Jesus Christ that our children understand they and we are a great family in the Lord. Many blessings
Cesar, your comment is very enriching and full of wisdom about the responsibility and privilege of fatherhood. It is true that being a father goes beyond providing the basic needs of children; it involves guiding them on the path of God, teaching them fundamental values and providing them with security through love and the teaching of the Word. It is inspiring to see your commitment to parenting based on respect, understanding and faith in God. May your dedication as a father continue to be a reflection of the unconditional love of our heavenly Father, and may you grow together, as a family in the Lord, in unity and love. May the Lord continue to bless your beautiful purpose as a parent! Many blessings to you and your family!
