COPYRIGHT 2012 STRATEGIC FATHERING
"But when the Holy Spirit controls our lives, he will produce this kind of fruit in us: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, (23) gentleness, and self-control. Here there is no conflict with the law." Galatians 5: 22-23
(Living Bible)
Jay's Personal Creed
I was going through some old files and came across something that I almost forgot I wrote. It was an exercise from a leadership class I was taking in 1999. The point of the exercise was to write down a personal creed and themes for our life, the result is below. Looking it over has caused some wonderings about how well I lived up to this “creed” and the themes I expressed as important. How about you…do you have a personal creed? Drop me a line and let me know what you think.
Peace,
Jay
By God’s grace I will seek to add to His Kingdom all the measure of a man, a leader, a brother, a father and a husband He desires. Surrendering to His purpose and His plans, I will give myself to strengthening all relationships given to me to touch. Allowing the Spirit to flow through my gifts, and through study and sacrifice I will seek to be more like His Son daily.
My Five Themes (What I will focus my learning on, perfecting)
1. Marriage
2. Fathering
3. Brotherhood/Unity
4. Creativity (art, writing, poetry)
5. Humor the gift of laughter
