On Affirmation
© Lee Wise
While in class sometime back one of my students shared how someone dear to him spontaneously said six words.
Just Six Words: Six!
The student heard just six words that sent him on an emotional high for the day -- and beyond.
"Thanks for treating me well today."
And here's the interesting aspect of this short snippet out of his life: the six words were not shared because his actions consistently would be categorized as negative.
Rather, his practice weighed in on the positive side of the emotional scale.
Let's Think About This In Relationship To Being A Dad...
A few considerations come to mind while reflecting on fathering:
1. How little it takes to lift up the heart of another person: six words and a heart is encouraged.
2. The importance of affirmation in the lives of people.
3. The value of verbalizing our positive thoughts to others.
On Saying A Little...
As dads we can say a little, true.
But a little -- said well -- can provide days of encouraging thoughts to our children.
Something to think about.
And do.
May God give us the ability to be alert while parenting our children.
