Encouragement on the same old things
Most husbands and dads know what they should be doing, and fall short of their expectations. It's not usually a problem of knowing what to do, but doing it. It's been described as the Knowing-Doing Gap.
I believe that God supplies the gift of encouragement to His people to address this very problem.
Encouragement isn't about coaching anyone with new skills or knowledge. Encouragement is often reminding someone of priorities, purposes, and accountability before the Lord. Encouragement is rooted in the FACT that we've been given everything we need (2 Pe 1:3) and that God is for us (Rom 8:31).
I'm here to encourage you. You need to be there to encourage the next guy.
