The Family That Works Together…
Hey Dad,
We’re running like crazy to get ready for our fall loop. We’ll hit the road in just a few days for the month of October and I’m feeling a little overwhelmed by all that needs to be wrapped up first.
Not only is there an RV and trailer to be packed, but there are also Familyman products that need to be assembled by team Wilson. Last night my kids and I were assembling and shrink wrapping our new and improved Christmas game – To Bethlehem (BTW – it’s awesome) along with the hot off the press 2015 You ‘da Dad Daily Calendar (BTW – It’s the most awesome edition ever!).
It reminded me of the days when I was a kid and my dad ran a print shop in our garage. I have fond memories of all of us working like mad to finish up a few jobs so we could go on vacation. Man, it made vacation all the sweeter on the back of family sweat and work.
Family work is the glue that sticks and draws us together. It’s not easy working as a family and the temptation is to do it all yourself but when you do, you ALL miss out on God’s best. I’ve heard some dads say, “Well, I don’t want my children to have to do all this work…and it’s just quicker to do it myself.” But here’s the deal: when you do it yourself, your children miss out on being needed crew members. They miss out on working with their dad – together.
Dad, maybe it’s time you do some work as a family. Clean out the garage – together, move that big pile of junk and take it to the dump – together, build that promised tree house – together, rearrange the furniture – together, do that one thing that you’ve put off and that your wife keeps reminding you about – together.
Then, go out for pizza.

A Dad Needs Your Help!
Todd –
Could you please pray for me and my family? We are going through a lot of struggles right now and we need to see a miracle in our marriage. Without going into much detail, I know that we don’t need anything else but God. The devil is working very hard to attack our family, and I need prayer warriors to pray for our family and not let the devil have victory. Thank you ~ R.W.
OK, Dad…pray.
