The Look On My Child's Face
Just yesterday I noticed a look of
love on my child’s face.
This happened in a most “ordinary place.”
It was in our home...a place
by God’s own design.
I felt God speaking to my heart
this particular time.
I didn’t take any time to
stop and realize,
The look of love and innocence
in my child’s eyes.
“Am I being the kind of Dad
God wants me to be?”
“Am I being an example of Christ
for my child to see?”
Have I been demonstrating my
God-given ability,
teaching my kids God’s love,
and responsibility?
May a Christ-like life in my kids
be clearly seen and understood,
As one day they will
grow into adulthood.
I hope that one day my
Children will say:
“I want to be like my Dad-
every single day!”
