I have from time to time asked myself a question where are the men. I grew up without a father and as a boy it was never easy. Raised by a woman who never understood what boys go through in their puberty stages is never an easy thing. My mother did a fine job by raising all by herself. I continually asked myself where is my father. I looked everywhere hoping that someone would recognise me as his son but none did. Today we still see men who abandon their offspring without an acceptable reason. Some are dragged to the maintenance courts to support their seed. The question still stand where are the men?
Our little boys are turning into monsters we will never be able to tame, just because men are absent. Today women are forced to be strong whereas they were never intended to be strong. How are we going to have a nation or perhaps a society of boys who are so eager to become responsible men if men are not acting to what they have been called to? Our boys and women need strong men who will stand in the gap. Not mighty men in terms of fists and weapons, but men who are strong at heart and character. Men who are willing to sacrifice their lives for the sake of others.
Indeed today we are clouded with men with selfish desires, men who would do anything to see their fellow man suffering. Back to the topic, where are men when our country is turning into a greedy and corrupt community? Where are the men when our boys are getting destroyed in drugs(i.e. nyaope, dagga, tik, alcohol)? Where are men when poor little girls get raped? Where are men when women get beaten like punching bags? Do we still have men? Do we still have men who stand for what is right?
This is a message to all men...
WHERE ARE YOU?
Where are men? This is a very crucial subject that is never discussed in society and it is not only affecting boys but girls as well! i believe that when we start changing what GOD has put in place, it always goes wrong. His plan was there will be a father and a mother, when joined together in the union of marriage, children are born. In that unity of a family, fathers play their part as much as mothers. When one part is not there, the child is not well nourished. I pray that fathers would take their place as men, stand their ground.
ReplyDeleteHe motions is a book that all men should read. I listen to it on uTube. It will not only help men but it is also helping me as a woman who yearns men to heal.
