I believe that in the sight of God a Father is so precious. He is a strong man that has been put in the earth to not only raise children but also establish dominion for the Kingdom of God. A Father represents dominance and authority as well as discipline. A Father has many different rigorous tasks but in the end he should accomplish that of which the Heavenly Father has commanded him to do. I believe that when God sees a real father he sees a reflection of his spirit meaning he sees the true manifestation of what he created man to do!!!
From a worldly perspective I believe the image or role of the father has been confused. Many men think that being a father simply means discipline and monetary contribution, and some don't even believe in neither one. The worlds perspective on a father is so messed up because now women have assumed the role of mother and father, which we know is not possible at all because a woman can't play both roles. Men who are in the world cannot grasp the concepts that a man in God can. So from the worldly perspective fathers have let down their children and let down society because many of them are absent from the home because they are not willing to assume that responsibility!!

What I believe that a true Father in the sight of God is...... A man that has a heart after God's own heart, and a relationship with our creator. A Father is a man who listens when the Lord teaches him to teach his child, takes his time up with the child. Actions speaks louder than words... The father just can't say that he loves the child he has to show that child to the fullest!!!! NO EMPTY PROMISES.... The child is looking for a rule mode.......So the best rule mode to that child, and what God is looking @ is a Father that is walking in the likeness of Jesus. I believe the GREATEST part of a Father is LOVE!!! Now 4 the world... anything goes a Father is just one who say that he is the child's father. A lot of times that Father put other things in front of that child, promises that child things, promises to be there at games, school events, to come and pick up the child, and still doesn't come, but HE IS STILL CONSIDERED A FATHER?
