Unto us a child is born. The travail of an expectant mum is over. I cried. I screamed and I praised God for safe delivery. Only heaven can tell of the dramatic story in the delivery suite. The pain, the contraction, the yelling, the I cannot do this anymore! So much for a expectant mum to bear. Am a P.O.P mate! Praise G.O.D. As I begin to meditate on God's goodness to me and my wife. As I found myself starring at my beautiful baby girl imagining and prophesying a a great future, a flash of reality raced through my upturned face. How do i keep my baby girl on a straight righteous path in the midst of perversion generation? A generation passionless about the things of God. An anything-goes generation. A generation where correction, family values and been removed from the book. Where multi-culturalism as replaced the very Christian foundation this great country was built upon.Where the media, peer pressure has undue effects on kids. Where kids are exposed and sexualised at a very young age. What about Magalauf? What about Sun, Sex and Suspicious Parent? The list is endless.
Never worry son, i said to myself . For all this i have Jesus. Proverb 2 came to mind. It says, my child,listen to what i say and remember what i command you. Listen carefully to wisdom,set your mind on understanding, cry out to wisdom, and beg for understanding, search for it like silver, and hunt for it like hidden treasure,then you will understand respect for the Lord.
I have made my own share of mistake and asking God to keep me straight. having a baby is a real game changer. Like i have to live it up, be responsible and trust God to me be a daily good inspiration to not just my kids but kids around me.
My journey to fatherhood is not complete if i do not live by example. Lord help me.
Inspired by my Sweet baby girl
