I think David makes an excellent example with the perfection coming in Jesus: Tenderhearted warriors who knew what a situation required and did it. <br /><br />Jesus made no mistakes, but David sure did and he was still called a man after God's own heart. He knew how to worship and knew how to get the job done. That's a good template.jasonShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03420776820764592085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7558065865093418290.post-31833942579276640892009-10-12T11:01:22.899-05:002009-10-12T11:01:22.899-05:00You forgot to add the "knows his way around a...You forgot to add the "knows his way around a grill" part.

I thought I'd been hiding the abuse pretty well, but what I didn't know was that the bruises were so large and dark that they could be seen through some of my clothes. One Sunday night after church, my best friend's boyfriend (now her husband) confronted me about the bruises. Inititally, I was humiliated. But in that moment that Tim confronted me, I saw the sharp contrast between a real man and a cheap counterfeit. It helped give me the courage to walk away from someone I thought I loved and back into the arms of The One Who loves me best and most (Jesus).Sarah Salterhttp://www.sarahsalter.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7558065865093418290.post-265715021855276882009-10-12T08:18:23.380-05:002009-10-12T08:18:23.380-05:00That's a perfect picture, katdish!That's a perfect picture, katdish!Billy Coffeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08988347213957444145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7558065865093418290.post-20563912989695098112009-10-12T08:03:55.324-05:002009-10-12T08:03:55.324-05:00Billy, hold on to that little girl!

Just yesterday I experienced a situation at Wal-Mart that shocked me. I blogged it, but basically a man was hitting a woman right there in the middle of the store. This angered me and I took action. During the altercation a fairly large man walked by, witnessed what was happening and opted to continue walking on. If my mind wasn't already busy on getting my children out of harm's way and wanting to help the girl, I would have liked to let that man know he is a coward. I hope more men will step back into thier boots and be men.

But he fits pretty much your entire list. <br /><br />And I think dads have a huge influence on little girls and who they pick. My bio dad wasn't much of a manly man. But I was raised mostly by my stepdad, and even though he was a man of few words, I always knew he would cherish and honor and protect all three of his girls. <br /><br />Your girlie is one of the lucky ones.
