The Legacy of a Father

Every father leaves a legacy—whether intentionally or not. Psalm 112 paints a clear picture of a godly man whose fear of the Lord and love for God’s Word doesn’t just bless him—it blesses generations after him. One of the most powerful biblical examples of this is Abraham. In Genesis 18:19, God says, “I have chosen him, so that he will direct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord...” Abraham’s faith shaped Isaac, and Isaac’s example impacted Jacob. The blessing didn’t stop at one generation—it flowed through many because one man chose to walk faithfully with God. Today, in a culture that often celebrates independence over integrity, fathers are needed who will stand firm, pray boldly, teach truth, and model humility. Your quiet faithfulness today can become your children’s foundation tomorrow.
