A friend asked me the other day about my life. The value of my life and my greatest joys and accomplishments. I think that they were surprised when I told them that the most important thing to me was that at my funeral my children stood up and said that I was a good Dad.
Yes, being a pastor is important and I have seen many wonderful things over the years. But if I succeed with the church and fail as a father, what does that say about my life?
I love my children and I would take a bullet for them. I love the church too, but if I were ever forced to choose, I would have to stand with my family. I wasn't always a pastor, and someday I will stop being one. But I will always be a father and a husband.
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
