Father

Father I will be soon! So i am reading this book called "Becoming a Dad," and i recommend to soon to be father or even current father. There is a section on being your kids hero. So here is the quote from the book. Let me know what you think.
"There is a difference between heroes and idols. Heroes fight for justice and are compassionate. Heroes take risks and are brave. Heroes walk in humility and are modest. Idols are false gods and are powerless. Idols are propped up and phony. Idols are made in the image of man, not the image of God. Being your child's hero isn't about shoes you have to fill, because you are already in them. Your choice is to either stand up in those emotional and spiritual shoes or take them off."

- More to come this weekend from the book and Catalyst.
