The apostle Paul knew that the Christian life revolved around two important principles: prayer and praise. So, early on in his letter to the Colossians, he urged his friends to continue their conversations with Jesus and to never forget why He is worthy of all honor. Things haven’t changed much. As guys living for God in the 21st century, Paul’s insights are still words we can live by. If we want to grow into the husbands and fathers God created us to be, we’ve got to make the truths of Colossians 1 a huge part of who we are. Even after more than 2,000 years, prayer and praise are still the keys to a strong faith and a strong family.
