Father’s Day Worship Reminder

June 18, 2017 by AChuckAllen


I don’t own much, but whatever I do have, I’d give it all away for one more chat with my Dad. 

I started to write something super-sappy about Dad, but I decided to write my top ten things that Dad taught me (in no particular order). By the way, this list could change day by day, based on what I remember and based on my needs at the moment. My Dad taught me a lot of things. I can hear him say…

  1. Son, there are four things that you cannot hide in this life. 1) Money, 2) Ugly, 3) Stupid and 4) Fat. (Need I say more?)
  2. Son, If you never learn how to square up and frame a wall, you’ll never square up your life. (Hmmmmm?)
  3. Son, you’re not that much to look at, be sure to take her flowers. (I ain’t kiddin)
  4. Son, you can tell a lot about a man by what he keeps in his truck. (Dad never went anywhere without his Bible)
  5. Son, if you can’t lead children to Jesus, you’ll be a pitiful preacher.(Amen, Dad)
  6. Son, if you don’t lose that weight before your 40, you never will. (Ouch)
  7. Son, never trust lazy people and never become a lazy man. (Thanks Dad – It’s served me well)
  8. Son, always carry a pocket knife. You never know when you’ll need it. (Clearly this was pre 9/11 but he was right again)
  9. Son, there are three things that will cost you your career and your family. 1) Money, 2) Women and 3) Pride. (Good word, Dad)
  10. Son, Never get so busy that you stop fishing. (Dad didn’t follow this one, and sadly, neither have I)

Happy Father’s Day from ACHUCKAllen
