Exodus 20:12 is another reading in the bible that deals with Fatherhood.

To me Exodus 20:12 talks about how children should anyways honor their father and mother.  This is also part of the Ten Commandments as well.

This talks to us fathers in a way we need to teach our children to honor us as we honor our own father and mother.  Children learn by example that we teach them.  

So make sure you are doing what you are teaching.

Here are two different bible translations of Exodus 20:12

Exodus 20:12

New International Version (NIV)

12 “Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.

 

Exodus 20:12

New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)

12 Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.

Psalm 103:13 is another reading in the bible that deals with Fatherhood.

To me psalm 103:13 talks about how we as fathers and dads should have compassion with our children even if they do something bad..

We need to treat our kids in the way we want everyone else to treat them as well as how we want God to treat us.  Since we are all children of God.

This also tells fathers to raise their children up with good values, kindness, and love like it is taught in the bible. 

These truly talk to us as fathers and dads to how to raise our children in general.

Here are two different bible translations of Psalm 103:13

Psalm 103:13

New International Version (NIV)

13 As a father has compassion on his children,
    so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him;

 

Psalm 103:13

New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)

13 As a father has compassion for his children,
    so the Lord has compassion for those who fear him.

Proverb 15:1 is one of my favorite verses in the bible. I try to think and remember this verse every time I get angry and mad at something. Being a father of four young kids, this is almost a daily occurrence. Reacting to something while you are mad almost always end up putting you into a worst position then if you calmly approach the issue.

The main thing this verse teaches you is to approach any situation with a calm attitude and the results will end up being better than if you approach it with anger. Next time when something makes you angry, approach it with a calm cool head and see what happens.

Here are three different bible translations of Proverb 15:1.

Proverbs 15:1

New International Version (NIV)

1 A gentle answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger.

 

Proverbs 15:1

New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)

1A soft answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger.

 

Proverbs 15:1

English Standard Version (ESV)

1 A soft answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger.
