“When you get in taekwondo, it teaches you the life skills of respect, self control, discipline-that's why I love it. I really attribute those skills to really getting over my dad's death.

“Why does a dad matter so much to a daughter, in particular? A dad is the one who teaches a daughter what a male is all about. It's the first man in her life--the first man she loves, the first male she tries to please, the first man who says no to her, the first man to discipline her. In effect, he sets her up for success or failure with the opposite sex. Not only that, but she takes cues from how Dad treats Mom as she grows up about what to expect as a woman who is in a relationship with a man. So Dad sets up his daughter's marriage relationship too.” MenTryingFirstsDoeMatterSexGrowsTeachGrowing UpEffectsParticularMomDadDisciplinePleaseDaughterOppositesTreatsMalesSuccess Or Failure Book:Be the Dad She Needs You to Be: The Indelible Imprint a Father Leaves on His Daughter's Life Source: Be the Dad She Needs You to Be: The Indelible Imprint a Father Leaves on His Daughter's Life

“What I've learned much about myself by now is as the quality and discipline of my quiet time with the Lord goes, so goes the rest of my life. Whether or not I'm staying in the Word daily decides how I respond to conflict, what kind of dad and father I am, and every other aspect of my life. That's probably why Satan seems to daily distract me from that most essential thing on my to do list: spend time with God.” KindFatherQualityLordDadDisciplineQuietConflictSatanEnd TimesSpend TimeQuiet Time Author:Matthew West
