Happy Father's day to my husband whom I love very much. To my Dad, and all of you who are a Dad. Anyone can be a Father, but it takes someone special to be a Dad.
A Father's ABC's
(Charles W Ridlen)
A lways trust your children to God's care
B ring them to church
C hallenge them to high goals
D elight in their achievements
E xalt the Lord in their presence
F rown on evil
G ive them love
H ear their problems
I gnore not their childish fears
J oyfully accept their apologies
K eep their confidence
L ive a good example before them
M ake them your friends
N ever ignore their endless questions
O pen your heart to their love
P ray for them by name
Q uicken your interest in their spirituality
R emember their needs
S how them the way of salvation
T each them to work
U nderstand they are still young
V erify your statements
W ean them from bad company
X pect them to obey
Y earn for God's best for them
Z ealously guide them in Bible truth

Thank you dear wife and friend for many years. I am glad you want to say so publicly, and happy to return the same to you just as publicly.
God has been good to us and blessed us with these children that run around here. At least they occasionally stop and say hello. They do eat a lot, though.
As always Sister Patti, you have an incredible post! I loved this poem.
