Help the weak or downtrodden, don’t take crap from people, hug your children and be capable of harming people if it’s a life and death situation. Be as kind as people let you be and as tough as people make you be. Look people in the eye, shake hands firmly and always keep your word. Be fair, honest and truthful and you’ll die in peace.

    When I was a young boy, I was walking down a gravel road with my dad. I accidentally took a misstep and fell to the ground, cutting my knees. Dad gently bent down and began to clean the wound, removing the little pebbles now embedded in my skin as I cried.I'd always heard adults talk about it, but I finally knew what they were talking about.I'll never forget the pain of my first kid knee stones.

    Wow! I feel so lucky. The only wound that I feel because of my father is the wound that he’s no longer with us. I lost him two years ago when he was 92. He grew up during the great depression and World War II and fought in the Korean War. I never once heard that man use his hardships growing up, of which he had many, as an excuse for anything. Never once did he give anyone a “why me” attitude. I am one of the lucky ones who did not have a good man as a dad. I had a great man as a dad.

    I never had a dad growing up. And I always knew it affected me as a father. Most of the time, I don't know if I'm doing it right. My son today was rewarded with a certificate for being the best behaved child in VBS and being able to memorize the most Bible verses. As a father, I couldn't be more proud. And I thank God for helping me help my son accomplish this. That being said, I give most of the credit to my wife, whom God also gifted me with.

    As a 36 yr old, I was far far to old when I realized how important my father was. I always loved him and tried to be respectful but I didn’t understand certain things and I was too angry. Looking back I see so much more.. so much more than me or my brothers understood. The sacrifices he made, and the work he did that we didn’t see. Among the good men I was surrounded by growing up, he was always there making everything possible and I never saw it till far too late.
    Now I’m trying to spend as much time with him as I can. He’s the best man I personally know. Hopefully I’m half as strong as he must be.

Then I have the second group of children that know a home of prayer, forgiveness and love because to God be the Glory I got saved during my second marriage and I'm the leader, husband, and father that wants to be so much more than I was when I was lost. The wounds are real for sure.

    My dad has been gone for 20 years now, and I still miss him every day.
    He was hard on us boys, but we learned a ton from him.
    He was a WW2 Marine and had seen things most of us couldn't possibly imagine on Saipan, Tarawa, and other hell holes in the Pacific.
    How he could go through nearly 4 years of that and come home to raise two healthy sons speaks volumes to that generation.

    My dad was a workaholic. He was barely there for us because he worked so much, and when he was home, he would just have the TV tuned to the news, so he was angry about all the stuff going on in the world. He tried to teach us morals but unfortunately due to his lack of presence, I didn't learn about manhood and masculinity until I reached my 30s. I'm a father of 3 and I'm going to take the good that my father did, but also try to do the good that my father didn't do.

    As a father who has been absent for closing in on 3 years, this was very hard for me to hear but I a good way.
    Myself, my son and his mother lived together for the first 5 years of his life and saw her and I fight almost every single day.
    After we split, she continued to try to make my life miserable at every step along side trying to smear my name. I just simply wanted to get along and just have a good relationship with my son and be a dad.
    I left because I ended up living in my car/working on the road and staying in a constant state of severe depression. I hated my life.
    I chose to not drag my child through the fire because I felt it that he did not deserve to be traumatized at such a young age.
    But my son is very smart and so far has been able to see through at least some of the BS he’s been fed from his mother. Not saying I was perfect because I definitely was not.
    I have spend the last almost 3 years focusing on my relationship with Jesus and rebuilding my life. Now I own my own place and 7 acres that I am building into a HOME.
    Really just needed to get it off my chest because I feel horribly guilty for leaving him even though he and I spoke about it and I told him many many many times that I was going to have to leave and that he had to be strong until I got back because it could be a while.
    Short story long, Jesus saves and YOU CAN COME BACK FROM WHATEVER.
    Still have a long way to go and I miss my son dearly.
    This message really really hit close to my heart.

    That point about unforgiveness needs to be hammered home to all people. My parents and grandparents drilled that into me and I got to see it lived out in a very horrific way. For about ten years I was a volunteer chaplain at a nursing home and one of the ladies I had in my bible study was a very sweet but angry woman who had 9 strokes which left her in a wheelchair drooling unable to talk for the most part, unable to function without assistance, just in horrible shape. I found out after a couple of months from the paid chaplain that she REFUSED to forgive her husband for something he had done. If someone brought it up the demon came out of her level anger took her over. She also hated her son who came to see her often. Before her first stroke she was more or less very social and happy, then her husband wronged her and the first stroke happened, and every stroke afterward brought her lower. Forgive, forget, move on, it isn't worth it to hold on to it.

    Talking about knowing you’re loved vs feeling loved: Though my father was present until after I became a teenager, taught me what good work ethic looks like, manage time properly and how to behave in society through his actions, I really never felt loved. He never showed interest in my interests and pushed hobbies onto me or even tried persuading me school is the only solution for “better opportunities”. My last conversation with my father made me realize he only speaks the words “I love you and only want the best for you” without me ever feeling he truly means them. In contrast, my Granpa (mom’s father) who passed away too early, was the only man in my life who showed me my interests and hobbies. It’s the very reason I never ask for his advice or opinion.

    The peace of mind that I sought out and found;
    was after I found out how to forgive my father and mother,
    because they both came by their behaviors honestly.
    The best part from that was; that I learned to forgive myself.
    It was easy to find my way back to a relationship with God from there.
    "Seek and you shall find"...
    ...do seek out the positive, is the only caveat I would add because,
    the negative is too easy to find and only holds you back from getting past the wounds suffered early on.
    The positive isn't always obvious or apparent but is so much more valuable to.

    This is pretty true. My dad left when I was about four years old and I moved in with him when my mom kicked me out when I was 14 because she was having issues with my sister. About a year and a half later my dad kicked me out and my mom let me move back in with her. It took me a long time to kind of get to a place where I was OK with all the issues that come with not having father around or having him be abusive or just not there when he was around and him disappearing all the time, but at some point, I figured out that, he was a kid in high school got sent off to Vietnam and watch a couple of his friends get killed and he came back in his country spit on him and called him a baby killer and he just closed himself off and disappeared mentally and is still kind of dealing with that. I found myself in my early 30s still trying to grow up and figure out what it was to be a man. as a Christian as a grew and learned, I had that as an example. Eventually, I was able to forgive my dad and move on with my life I think. One thing that’s important to remember is that even when you forgive somebody they’re gonna be times when things get thrown back in your face and you feel that resentment again and we were told to forgive again and again again, the whole 7×70 thing, and it’s kind of a process.
    I think he’s right though. When you look at simple facts and statistics, almost everybody in prison was raised by a single mom or had an abusive father in the house. People rated the happiest, most successful and least self-destructive in terms of committing crimes doing drugs, etc., or people that had , a healthy father figure. These statistics are consistent with single parents who are males and kids who grew up without mothers. Feminists hate this because we’re all supposed to praise single mothers and hate fathers in this society, but those are just facts kids better with the dad in the house, it’s way better with healthy parents, but even in a parent household they do better with a father and these statistics are pretty overwhelming. It’s around 85% of the time.
    I’m not sure I’m a great judge, the only man I have a really had in my life as an influence was either short term a boyfriend of my moms or my grandfather none of which or exactly great examples and I didn’t have these great examples till I became an adult and became a Christian, and then saw through the examples of Jesus and in the Bible and of friends of mine, who are good men that had children and how they interacted with them, but I definitely see it. Especially for a young boy, your father is your example you grow up following an example, I grew up without that example and had a mom who worked a couple of jobs and a grandfather who tolerated us who is around sometimes, but I found myself in my mid 30s just trying to figure life out and figure out how I fit and what I was. Life would’ve been a whole lot easier if I figured a lot of this stuff out by the time I was 14 or 15.
    But we get to a point where life is what it is and we can’t change it and at some point, we have to take responsibility for ourselves, figure things out for ourselves and make our own way and it’s great to have that example in your life, but even though it sucks, if you don’t, you still gotta figure it out. Luckily we have a God who gave us a manual and a shining example of what we should be, and we’ve just gotta figure it out from there and sometimes sometimes learn things the hard way, but as I get older, I can tell you that listening to God and his word telling us how to be is what you’ll figure out eventually and it’s much easier to just take that on faith and go from that point than it is to spend decades learning things the hard way .
    A lot of Christians think when it talks about generational sin and the sins of your parents that this means God is punishing you for things your parents did, but that’s so very wrong. And it’s talking about generational sin it’s talking about how you were raised in the things you learned incorrectly that lead you to send in part of breaking that curse of generational sin is to let things go and to forgive so those actions and habits of, your family and the errors made, and how you were raised, to let them go to learn how you should be and move on. The way to break generational sin is to recognize where the problem was were and what behavior that came from and how to do things differently. Part of that is to let things go to be reborn or born again and we have a perfect example. In Jesus, we have God‘s word to tell us what we need to do at some point we need to grow up and become independent of our environment of our situation of, our parents or lack there and take responsibility for ourselves and our own actions. Figure out how to do things the right way and then do them. To do that you have to learn to forgive because you can’t let those things go until you learn to forgive you handed over to God let him bring justice and deal with all that, just handed over to him and then concentrate on your own life what you need to do And how to do it and if you don’t have a good parental example, then you go to your Bible if you need to go to a counselor to get an unbiased opinion is not trying to break through a bunch of emotion and trauma and history and baggage, and then you take your own life and start a new, That’s kind of what Born again is when you repent and turn away from your old life and start a new life in Christ following his example and teachings. It’s easy to do in this situation because it’s something that affects you so directly and emotionally even if you don’t acknowledge it. With me it was just a dad who is gone all the time and the few times he was there would just disappear with no notice and It’s much easier said than done and that’s where the forgiveness comes in. It’s hard to get over something and move on. You still have emotional ties and trauma that are active from that previous situation. Forgiveness brings you to a point where you can start to let that stuff go and it may take a while and, you have to forgive over and over and over, but that’s really the only way to proceed and take back your life so you can live it. Prayer is part of it, turn it over to God ask him to take it on and for him to carry that burden, it’s not something where you can just go. Oh well I forgive you and it’s out of your mind so pray for him to work in youand help you do it

You gotta work at it, but God‘s providence will give us everything we need and help us be who we need to be. We just have to learn two align ourselves with his will, and the first part is reading his word and getting to know him and understanding his will. Everything else will work, but that’s what makes it fall into place.

One thing I learned from my Dad, since I have 3 sisters, protect and provide. I love my daughters, have a pretty strong bond with my sisters. As a Dad to daughters, we need to HOPEFULLY give them a model/starting point to finding their husbands. I am a young 52, and identify with a lot of the points made about my Dad. As I have gotten older, looking back now as a Father, I am able to "Celebrate wins". Going to let this simmer in my heart and mind, probably watch again over the weekend🙏God bless🙏

    This one hits home big time. I was abandoned at 9 months old by my biological mother. Put into foster care. My adopted family always shunned me for my high energy. Whole time I'm accomplishing more than my two older brothers and sister. I was on the honor roll. Leader of the walk run club. Fastest mile in the entire school. Best player on my Christian basketball team. Moved to Michigan and had a reset and kinda stopped caring until I wanted to join the Marines. By my own self motivation, I ran 4-5miles before school. Was in peak physical condition. Broke the record for the most sit-ups at Fort Custer at 242 in 2 minutes. Got kicked out at 17yrs old. Wandered the streets and found family in friends and was blessed with a family who aligned with who I needed.
    I pursued my dreams of music and was building momentum. Got full custody of my 1st daughter from an abusive mother. Had her for 11yrs and had 2 more girls within that time. Then because a man beat up a woman on Halloween 2020 in front of my kids. I stepped in, he pulled a gun on me, held a kid hostage, and thankfully, nobody got hurt. Then I lost custody of my oldest, and the relationship between the other two dwindled because I somehow got treated the worst by doing the bravest thing I've experienced in person. Since then I have experienced evil, corruption, gang stalking, Electronic Harassment, sabotage, witchcraft, and my life being played with on several occasions by demonic people. Thankfully I'm not even a trained beast but just incredibly brave and came out unscathed and got some justice.
    The biggest hurt is that I always loved my kiddos in the way I never received but because of the evil ways of people. Have suffered more than I did. Then in turn watch them suffer and it's crushed my heart to the point of complete numbness. Not to virtue signal but I have accomplished more great things in my life than almost anyone in my life. Yet got shunned the most. All of which were genuinely good intentioned. With the intent on helping everyone around me by putting myself in better situation financially or in general.

    While this guy makes some valid points, he speaks as though he's never touched a weight in his life, getting jacked naturally is not easy it takes years of discipline and work. I don't train for vanity I train so I can physically carry my family out of harms way or go that extra mile when it really counts. If you look around the world isn't getting better in fact we are on the brink of all out war, not to mention the civil unrest from the upcoming election. Being in shape could honestly be the difference in life and death it's ignorance to think otherwise.

      I think you may have missed the point, or jumped the gun with your comment. Being physically fit is totally different than having pretty muscles. I haven’t hit a gym since high school, but can outwork most people on the construction site. It’s different muscle groups that actually make a difference in real life.

      While i agree to an extent i wasn't talking about roided out gym rats. He said 6 pack which denotes proper core strength, bmi, and nutrition. Someone in this condition will be able to physically go farther and and endure more than the average person so long as they have the right mindset. Being stronger makes you more capable is all. People's idea of how capable you need to be varies based on their own perception and experience. ​@everydayman3497

    I never had the chance to meet my father. That feels like a giant empty hole though one's soul. It's an endless blackhole of emptiness, why, what if. I envision a swirling vortex of blackness when it comes to thinking of my father. I have had to learn to become a man on my own, though observations of other men in my life. Thankfully I become very smart in picking my role models. At an early age I decided I didn't need a father to be whole. The wound of my father was a mortal one. What is left behind is something who doesn't feel anything but torment. Yes, I become successful, now I'm watching it fall around me. I made it without him, now what? Money, success hasn't filled the vortex or patched the wound. I thought romance would be a tourniquet, however that turned out to be a fiction told by others. Now I find myself up a creek without a paddle or compass only to rely on my wits to find my way.

    In working with people with forgiveness issues, I often have to remind them that only God can forgive sins. Forgiving the person who hurt them doesn't give that person a free ride to happiness or heaven, that's up to them and God. Forgiveness breaks the chains of the enemy that wants to bring shame and condonation, and releases the forgiveness principle and other areas of their life as well. Jesus said that unless we forgive others, we cannot be forgiven
