A FATHER
by Lewis E. Thomas

A Father is to be the leader and the head of his house!
He is to be strong and not timid like a little mouse.

A Father goes to work every day and provides for his own!
He is to be the spiritual leader and priest in his home.

A Father should discipline his children with holy love!
A Father should seek the Wisdom that comes from above.

A Father should be an example in word and deed!
So his family will seek him out for wisdom if need.

A Father should never wound the Spirit of his Wife!
His behavior should never cause her any pain or strife!

A Father should treat the Mother of his children like a Queen!
A Father should practice Sobriety and never do things obscene!

A Father filled with God will always do his family well
But a Father without God can be a living Hell!

A Father should teach his children to never tell a lie!
A Father shouldn't abuse his family and cause them to cry!

What kind of Father are you to your family today?
If we asked each member just what would they say?
