When God created Father

[Dnarang]

Aum Sairam

This inspirational story is about fathers, a great story to read to your little children. Why do we look up to our fathers? It is because he is a strong and confident figure, someone who believes in raising his family with great morals and values? It is because he is a loving father and an ardent husband and provider.

Whoever is born, the father is the cause of his birth. Therefore, the father is everyone's visible God. Fathers can be the kindest, loving, compassionate and tender beings that God has created. In some family situations fathers often take the role of a mother and become the nurturing care givers. Enjoy being a father.

When the good Lord was creating Fathers, he started with a tall frame.A female angel nearby said, what kind of a Father is that? If you're going to make children so close to the ground, why have you put the Father up so high? He won't be able to shoot marbles without kneeling, tuck a child in bed without bending, or even kiss a child without stooping.

God smiled and said, yes, but if I make him child size, who would children look up to.

And when God made Fathers hands, they were large. The angel shook her head and said, large hands can't manage diaper pins, small buttons, rubber bands on pony tails, or even remove splinters caused from baseball bats.

Again God smiled and said, I know, but they're large enough to hold everything a small boy empties from his pockets, yet small enough to cup a child's face in them.

Then God molded long slim legs and broad shoulders, do you realize you just made a Father without a lap. The angel chuckled.

God said, A Mother needs a lap. A Father needs strong shoulders to pull a sled, to balance a boy on a bicycle, or to hold a sleepy head on the way home from the circus.

When God was in the middle of creating the biggest feet any one had ever seen, the angel could not contain herself any longer. That's not fair. Do you honestly think those feet are going to get out of bed early in the morning when the baby cries, or walk through a birthday party without crushing one or two of the guests.

God again smiled and said, they will work. You will see. They will support a small child who wants to ride to Branbury Cross or scare mice away from assumer cabin, or display shoes that will be a challenge to fill. God worked throughout the night, giving the father few words, but a firm authoritative voice; eyes that see everything, but remain calm and tolerant.

Finally, almost as an after thought, He added tears. The He turned to the angel and said, NOW ARE YOU SATISFIED HE CAN LOVE AS MUCH AS A MOTHER CAN

Divine words of our Beloved Lord Sai
The mother can be compared to the earth and the father to the seed. Unless the seed is sown in the earth the plant will not sprout. You cannot ignore the father and mother who are responsible for your birth and growth. Show the parents respect with love and devotion. It is a tribute you should offer them for the great chance they gave you to come into this world, with all the wonderful opportunities it offers for self realization. The heart of the father who fosters the child, and develops his personality, is sweet.
