“It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.” —Frederick Douglas

As fathers, we are irreplaceable in the lives of our children.

Our lives in Christ are strengthened and enriched when we stop living each day AROUND Him and intertwine our lives to live each day WITH Him.

The ultimate REASON for our very existence is to be in loving fellowship with the Father... EVERYTHING is an outflow of that.

The father’s loving pursuit was for both of his sons, not just the wayward one.

When a person begins to experience genuine compassion, they are unable to sit back and do nothing. Why? Because real compassion is love in action.

Trust what you do know about God, more than what you don’t know about the future.

Jesus has called us to be an extension of His heavenly honor here in the earth.

Discernment is a God-given insight [knowing] that allows us to distinguish the difference between the work of God, the work of the flesh, or the demonic [spiritual accuracy].

Jeremiah 4:3 (NKJV) “Break up your fallow [untilled] ground, and do not sow among the thorns.”

Jesus didn’t help this man close the distance, He removed it. Because Jesus never came to “make up” the difference, He came because He is the difference!

“God honors bold prayers, and bold prayers honor God.” —Mark Batterson
