REAL MEN RECOGNISE TRUTH

Font size: Decrease font Enlarge font

 Sir,

We have so many crises in many sectors of society because many men suffer from identity crises. Our generation of men seems to lack the understanding of the normal values that undergird a productive family or society.

The essence of manhood is actually fatherhood. A father is a source, origin, foundation, sustainer, provider and protector. Therefore fathers should be the source of righteousness, peace and joy in families and societies.


As a man or father you must have key values in your life. We are living in a world which has mixed up, and substitute values. We often throw away people and keep things. Real men recognise truth and align their lives with it.


You must know that some things are more important than others; wisdom is more important than rubies, love is more important and superior to sex and a good name is better than riches. Your value system is either created by God, you or others. Whoever dictates your values becomes your god.


Exposes


Know that usually money clarifies or exposes your value system. We tend to invest our money in the things we value the most. Money will bring worthiness and respect in your life as a man, but you must always pursue to leave a legacy of having been a good father. The greatest value of a father’s legacy is the values and faith he leaves in the lives of his children. We must know that everything in life has value, whether actual or perceived.


Granted


We must not take things for granted; especially the time that God has given us to make a difference as men and fathers. Time is a critical ingredient in successful fathering. Spend time on that which is valuable, your marriage, wife and children. To maximise your manhood you must embrace real values and God’s vision for your life as a father.


Everything about you and what you do matters and it is not just personal but generational. You are not just living, you are leaving a legacy. It is never too late to change or become a better man. Remember, good men make good marriages, good marriages make good families and good families produce responsible citizens.

Charles
