MAN, WOMAN, CHILD, COMMUNITY
They would have you to think and believe that it is the politicians, religious, social, civil rights and empowerment leaders that will solve our economic, family and community problems. All while the real answer to these problems is made to look insignificant in the scheme of things. Yet this answer was ordained since the foundation of creation and its impact as powerful and life changing as the words “Let there be” and “It was". Fatherhood is the answer to our social, economic, and communal deprivation. So as our homes and communities lay to waste, formless and void, and darkness hover over the souls of our children, the Spirit of fatherhood can move over the surface of our society and the souls of those whom we brought into this world with those same powerful words “Let there be” and it shall be and it will be good.
The term father is not just a title given to a man. It is a powerful life changing creative force which is at its best and made better when augmented by the supported and help it receives from its rib. That rib is the one who protects the man’s vital parts and vulnerable areas; it goes by the name of WOMEN. The man is to be provider and protector for woman and child and only a strong woman can keep the man in tuned to and tune-up for that responsibility. Each role is significant for the prosperity of community and children, none is insignificant. It’s like saying which has more significance the alternator or the battery when both roles have great but different significances. Man and woman were never created to compete with one another, but to collaborate with each other.
The man is needed for the empowerment and success of community and children, the woman is there to make sure he has the fortitude and help to accomplish that, and the children are the recipients this duet. Fatherhood is the missing link when it comes to solving our social, economic, and communal deprivations.
“There is a cause that has the power to change the course of our society, Heal the ills of our communities, and determine the future of our very existence. It is a cause of great significance, but its significance is being weakened by the prison system, capitalism, social genocide, irresponsibility, and absenteeism. Yet the power of this cause remains unmatched, unmistakable, and irreplaceable; its effects are certain and irrefutable…that cause is fatherhood.” ~Excerpt from WHO’S YOUR DADDY?
