10 Tributes by Ps Dexter to all fathers...

Fathers in our church being prayed for by Elijah Low

I know many of us were pretty occupied with our children, taking pictures to capture the moments, etc... and perhaps unable to pay much attention to what was shared by Elijah on Fathers' Day. Ps Dexter was away to preach in another church, so the tributes were shared on his behalf by his son, Elijah. Here's something i got so that we all can share the joy of knowing what our beloved Pastor has written for each and every fathers we know.

Today we pay tribute to all fathers in our midst...

1. For your willingness to labour in order to provide food, shelter, education and many other needs of your family, for this we honour you.

2. For being true and faithful to the children's mother, this means everything to them.

3. For living a life that is godly, for loving God and willingness to serve Him. In so doing, you have given us a model to follow that would result in God's blessings in our lives.

4. For spending time with the children, playing with them, taking care of their every need and being available for them.

5. For having your family's interests in your heart and concern whenever you have to choose your career, transfer or further training.

6. For your willingness to forgo many things including hobbies, promotions and numerous opportunities to climb the ladder, for the sake of your children so that you were able to be with them.

7. For your willingness to guide and lead your children to their God-assigned destiny and to provide all you can to see that they realise their dreams and visions.

8. For imparting love, godly values and anointing to your children.

9. For shaping the lives, character and mindset of your children in Christ's image.

10. For laying the right foundation for your children so that they would be raised to be great and successful men & women of God.
