"Honor your father and mother.” This is the first of the
Ten Commandments that ends with a promise. And this is the promise: If you
honor your father and mother, "you will live a long life, full of
blessing.” And now a word to you fathers. Don't make your children angry by the
way you treat them. Rather, bring them up with the discipline and instruction
approved by the Lord.
Fathers are the biggest source of strength for a child. The
innocent eyes of a child perceive father as the all-powerful, most knowledge,
truly affectionate and the most important person in the family. For daughters,
fathers are the first men they adore and fall in love with. While for sons
their fathers are the strongest person they know and someone they aspire to
emulate. Even for the grownups fathers are someone whom they look up to for the
most experienced and honest advice that is always in the best of our interest.
For this great figure in our life that we know as father - it becomes our
utmost duty to pay our humblest tribute on the occasion of Father's Day.
Say Thanks to Dad on
Father's Day
Children blessed with a loving father should consider
themselves fortunate. For, they have someone to take care of their needs and
interests. Someone to stop them when they are diverting to a wrong path and
guide them on a road to success and virtue. For many of us fathers have always
been there to solve our innumerous mathematics and science problems and explain
the same formula hundredth time or better still until it is understood by us.
Fathers would never ever give a smallest of hint to let us know how hard they
work to take care of our needs and fulfill even the most whimsical of
demands... For all their adorable scolding and affectionate punishments we all
owe a big thanks to our Dads.
Apologize to Dad on
Father's Day
Father's Day also brings with it the wonderful opportunity to
apologize for all our rude and insensitive behavior. We as children often take
the love and affection of our parents for granted and treat them with outright
contempt. We need to apologize. We must feel great to have the presence of
loving father in our lives and do not disrespect the blessing of God on us. On
Father's Day we must says “Sorry” to our Dad and seek their forgiveness for our
wrong behavior.
Celebrate Father's Day
with Dad
We must make all efforts to celebrate Father's Day with our
Dad. Children staying away from father must especially strive to spend the day
with father and show gratitude for all their support and love. We must pamper
father by spending the day in a manner he likes most. It could be going out for
a picnic or indulging him with a gourmet meal. We can also express love
with thoughtful gifts accompanied by a bouquet of his favorite flowers. The
idea is to show our affection and tell Daddy how much he is loved and
appreciated not just on Father's Day but every single day of our lives.
