Strength of a Man

One of my resolutions this year, was to take the time to say the things on my mind...So here goes. My husband is amazing. He balances so much:

First he is lead Pastor of The Life, he gives so much to people- putting time into building messages, taking time to meet with people, planning and visioneering...He is a gifted leader. On top of that he works full time, leading his team in sales, bringing home the bacon, if you will. He plays basketball on a league, works out regularly, and still calls me everyday and says, "You want me to pick up the girl?" If I say yes, he goes to her preschool and gets Angelina takes her home, makes a snack. I think the way he is with her, speaks volume about his true character and nature. I watch as he is gentle and loving, but tries to be firm (he's easily swayed by her big blue eyes though...) He is an incredible dad. Any guy who'd wear a pink Barbie bandaid on his cut- is secure in his manhood and clearly is wrapped very tightly around a little girls finger...




Thank you Brad for being an anchor for our family:

The strength of a man isn't seen in the width of his shoulders.
It's seen in the width of his arms that circle you.

The strength of a man isn't in the deep tone of his voice.
It's in the gentle words he whispers.

The strength of a man isn't how many buddies he has.
It's how good a buddy he is with his kids.

The strength of a man isn't in how respected he is at work.
It's in how respected he is at home.

The strength of a man isn't in how hard he hits.
It's in how tender he touches.

The strength of a man isn't in the hair on his chest.
It's in his Heart... that lies within his chest.

The strength of a man isn't how many women he's loved.
It's in how he can be true to one woman.

The strength of a man isn't in the weight he can lift.
It's in the burdens he can carry.
