Bible verse of the day...Ephesians 6:4 (NIV)

Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord. Ephesians 6:4 (NIV)

My reflection of the verse

Fathers of every child must be able to teach their children the ways of God. He must be able to lead them the proper and decent way of living. Discipline is very important in every home. Children sometimes doesn't know what they are doing and the role of the parents is crucial to their development. The guidance of a father is important to a child as he grows older. A father must be a role model to his child. Meaning he must live according to God's law and his ways should be based on the principles of the bible. A child may commit mistakes and a father should be firm with his discipline. However, should be gentle and calm in dealing with it.
