"Dads, be encouraged," writes Dave Stone, author of Building Family Ties with Faith, Love and Laughter.  "You can do this. You really can . . . just not on your own. Invite the Lord and your wife into the equation. From this point forward, things can be different.

Things can be better.

Check your priorities. Be intentional.

Slow down. Step up.

Get in the picture.

When you look back years from now, both you and your family will be glad you did.
