Being a father has been one of the most beautiful thing that has ever happened to me. Truth be told, this Job has brought a lot of high & low moments for me.
I've learnt a lot - what it means to be a father, what it means to embrace certain responsibilities, how to face certain challenges and also embrace them.
I've sacrificed a lot of things & time and deep down, I know it can't be compared to the greatest sacrifice - ***God sacrificing His only Son. ***
There are times Baby Smile does things and I want to beat her thoroughly, I feel this overwhelming love flood my soul and my spirit tells me that's how God feels when we've gone wrong.
There are times I get to forgive her before she does wrong because I know she'll definitely do it - A lot of times, I've patiently cautioned her about making the same mistake, it might take a while but definitely she takes heed and becomes better. That's how God is patiently taking time to align us to His will and purpose for our lives.
I might not have all the resources in the world but I try my best to give her the best in life how much more God who owns EVERYTHING in this world, definitely your needs are already taken care of.
Most times, I stay awake until she sleeps before I sleep but we have a Father who doesn't sleep or slumber.
*Being a father has made me understand God more and see Him more as a Father than what religion has painted Him to be. *
I'm still learning daily but most importantly, I'm grateful I have Baby Smile and a Father who loves and cares for me.
