This chapter talks about men fearing that they might not be a good enough father. Thoughts of failure and inadequacy is what causes some fathers to become overbearing from trying too hard or the opposite, become passive and not try at all. The best way to know how to be a father is to become close to our heavenly Father -to experience His love.
If you don't have kids yet, pray for your husband as a future father. If aren't having children or your children are grown, pray for a father that God puts on your heart to pray for.
Lord I thank you for showing love to my husband and showing him how to love like you love us. I pray that his relationship with his children is strengthened and that you show him how to be patient and how to teach them about you. Show him how to discipline in love and have a balance - not to be too harsh and not to be too lenient. Reassure him of his adequacy through you and keep his eyes open to lies that may come from the enemy about his fatherhood. In Jesus Name, Amen.
