What Is a Man
WHAT IS A MAN
A man is someone who reveres God and His laws above all else.
He knows respect comes from these qualities and not from fear and he is known for his kindness and compassion.
A man is someone who is aware of his responsibilities and shoulders them willingly with pride in a job well done.
He strives to teach these values to his children.
A man loves his wife.
He honors and respects her and teaches his children to do the same.
He is the provider and protector of his household and he knows he is the head of the house because he has earned it, not just because he is "The Man" of the house.
What is a man?
He is husband, father, provider, protector, both leader and follower,(and he knows when to be each), servant and teacher.
And he's proud of it.
