Dear men, close your eyes and imagine you have a daughter.
Now imagine she is dating a guy just like you. Did you smile? If not, then ask yourself why. Because the truth is, the way you live, love, and treat women today sets the standard for the kind of man you’d ever want your daughter to end up with.

If the thought of her dating someone with your habits, your temper, your communication style, your level of respect—or lack of it—makes you uncomfortable, then that’s your wake-up call. Change isn’t about perfection, it’s about accountability. Be the type of man who listens instead of dismisses. Be the type who protects instead of harms. Be the type who values loyalty, honesty, and kindness over ego, control, and pride.

When you love with patience, with gentleness, with real respect, you not only raise your own standard, but you also raise the standard for your future daughter. She will grow up knowing what love is supposed to feel like because she saw it in you first. And when she meets a man, she won’t settle for less than what you showed her she deserves.

So if the thought didn’t make you smile, let it make you change. Because one day, your daughter might thank you not only for being her father—but for teaching her, by your example, what a real man truly is.

It’s tough being a parent during those teenage challenging years. What can you do better? How can we help our son or daughter? I asked these questions so many times as I raised my 3 kids. Could I shelter them, keep them away from dangerous friends or lifestyle choices? How could I be a better mom? Did I contribute to their rebellious ways? Many times I cried out to God and pleaded for guidance. Today I read an article a friend shared about putting our basket in the water. It was meant for kids who leave home to go to college or move away but I related to it as a mom who puts her basket in the Holy water of Christ, carrying my child. How many times did I turn to God and give Him complete control of my basket in His Holiest of waters. Instead I tried to control the parenting and the situations. I tried controlling the way my basket flowed. That led to disconnection from my kids. I love the idea of putting our basket in the water and watching God work. True faith!

Remember when Moses’ mom put him in a basket in the water. Look what God did through Moses.
