Love
The best thing a father can do for his children is love their mother. (Abraham Lincoln)
On this anniversary of Lincoln’s birth, we would do well to recall some of his wisdom. This admonition of his is perhaps one of the most needed today. Many families are in trouble, and as a result, our neighborhoods suffer from their dysfunction. This one challenge—that fathers love their wives–would make a significant difference.
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her (Ephesians 5:25).
