Dear beloved,
I would like to wish all fathers " A Happy Father's Day." If this greeting can put a smile on your face, that means you have achieved something as a father. As a father myself and having four children ranging from 25 to 10 years of age, I certainly can say I enjoy fatherhood more now than the early days. Can anyone tell me the
reasons?
I believe one of the keys is knowing God the Father. As apostle John put it in 1 John 2:13 Fathers, I write to you because you have known Him from the beginning.The longer we walk with God the Father, the more we become a father like Him and the better we can relate to our children.
Every father can achieve something if we take heed to what apostle John wrote in 1 John 1:1 What was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we beheld, and what our hands touched, as regards the Word of Life.
Fathers, you are your children's "word of life". What you say, what you do and how you behave form and shape their lives.
Let's pray. Dear Heavenly Father, help us to know You so that we can be a father to our children like You. Amen.

至深爱的，
我要祝所有的父亲“父亲节快乐”.如果这祝福语能令父亲们欢笑的话,意思是你们作父亲的已达成某责任了.身为人父,拥有四个儿女从十岁至二十五岁的我,好确定的说:“我现在比起以前更享受作父亲的身份.”有何人能为我解释到呢?
我相信其中的原因是我越来越认识父神了.使徒约翰在约翰一书二章十三节说,父老啊!我写信给你们,因为你们认识那从起初原有的.我们越跟从父神就会越似父神了,我们就更容易跟儿女们相处.
每位父亲可以成就某些事情,如果我们注意到使徒约翰所写在约翰一书一章一节里,伦到从起初原有的生命之道,就是我们所听见,所看见,亲眼看过,亲手摸过的.
父神,祢是儿女的“生命之道”.祢所说,所做和祢的作为形成同制作出他们的生命.
让我们祈祷,亲爱的天父,请帮助我们,使我们在儿女中能成为一位效法似祢的好父亲.阿们.
