Guiding Thought
Presence is powerful. Being physically there is only part of it — emotional presence is just as vital. A father who shows up consistently brings predictability, safety, and strength. Small, consistent deposits of time and attention build lifelong trust.
Reflective Questions
- How present are you emotionally, not just physically?
- What daily routines could help you be more consistent?
- What distractions compete for your attention?
- How do your kids react when they have your full presence?
Encouragement from the Word
Deuteronomy 6:6–7
"And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise."
Spiritual leadership is built into daily rhythms. Showing up — again and again — is the soil where wisdom takes root.
