The Strength of a Man

Although I'm guilty of not always letting Pappy know how much he's appreciated....he was the very first person I thought of when I read this.
He was aptly named....because he is definitely a "jack of all trades"!!!
He can do ANYTHING....fix ANYTHING....take care of ANYTHING!!!!
So....I dedicate this to husband....a blessing from God!!!
The Strength of A Man
The strength of a man isn't seen in the width of his shoulders.
It's in the width of his arms that encircle you.
The strength of a man isn't in the deep tone of his voice.
It's in the gentle words he whispers.
The strength of a man isn't how many buddies he has.
It's how good a buddy he is with his children.
(and grandchildren)
The strength of a man isn't in how respected he is at work.
It's in how respected he is at home.
The strength of a man isn't in how hard he hits.
It's in how tender he touches.
The strength of a man isn't in the hair on his chest.
It's in his heart, that lies within his chest.
The strength of a man isn't how many women he's loved.
It's in being true to one woman.
The strength of a man isn't in the weight he can lift.
It's in the burdens he can carry.
Blessings,
