When a wife hears her husband pray, humbly bringing his concerns and burdens to the Lord, she experiences a deep level of peace because those in whom she depends are communicating with one another--her beloved and her King. When children hear their father pray--and not just for and about them, but about the concerns and burdens on his heart--they experience the profound. They see their father in all his vulnerability and in the full power of his strength. Mike, you are a good father.
