You probably didn't have a commencement speech, so allow me to point you to this one given on 7/26/2020 by Congressman Dan Crenshaw of Texas 2nd Congressional District:
"This isn’t the typical graduation for 2020 seniors this year, so I wanted to give graduating students a commencement speech that matched the moment. 2020 graduates may feel like they’re being robbed of everything that makes their last year of school memorable - prom, parties, graduation with their friends. But students graduating from school this year are being gifted something that many previous graduates did not receive: perspective. And that perspective will mean something throughout their lives, and give them strength, resilience, and fortitude."
Praise God we are spending ALL the days of our lives together as a family. But we might have lost conversations that are directed and productive which "fosters a heart for God and serving others." If that's your family, here's a quick help starter from "Godly Parent".
Give it a read, and print out the PDF! Set it on your dining table and put it to practice, practice and practice. You all might eventually come up with your own questions that's significant to your family.
Parenting is both hard and heart work. God bless your endeavors! Proverbs 16:24, "Kind words are like honey, sweet to the soul and healthy for the body.”

Godly Dads
“And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord.”
— Ephesians 6:4
Are you a father? If so, how is your relationship with your children? Are you enjoying a close, nurturing relationship or tolerating a distant, divided one?
Karl Marx once said that in order to take over any nation, one must create a breach between one generation and the next, preventing the transfer of strong values, morals, and beliefs. We saw this in our own nation as the famed “generation gap” between the youth of the sixties and the generation before them came closer to dividing fathers from sons and daughters than anything else in the history of this country. Since that time, we’ve seen the unraveling of the moral fabric of our nation, making our country vulnerable to influences of all kinds.
But we can have hope. The last verses of the Old Testament describe the greatly anticipated Day of the Lord, saying that just before Christ returns, God “will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers” (Malachi 4:6). At that time, children and their fathers will bond together once again. Even now we’ve begun to see a uniting, in heart and mind, of fathers with their sons and daughters.
Are you a father? If so, what part do you play in this promised bonding? Before you know it, your children will be gone. What spiritual and emotional legacy will your children carry with them into adulthood?
I hope that on Father’s Day this year all of us who are dads will commit to being godly fathers, bringing up our children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. We need to teach our children the doctrines of our holy religion. We need to pray with them and for them, especially in these days of moral decline. Today, pray that God will give you the strength and courage necessary to devote your life to Him and to be a godly father.
“I believe . . . that husbands hold the keys to the preservation of the family.”
James Dobson

National Day of Prayer Guide For Kids.pdfMay 7, 1st Thursday!
May 7, 1st Thursday!
"The National Day of Prayer is an annual observance held on the first Thursday of May, inviting people of all faiths to pray for the nation. It was created in 1952 by a joint resolution of the United States Congress, and signed into law by President Harry S. Truman. Our Task Force is a privately funded organization whose purpose is to encourage participation on the National Day of Prayer. It exists to communicate with every individual the need for personal repentance and prayer, to create appropriate materials, and to mobilize the Christian community to intercede for America’s leaders and its families. The Task Force represents a Judeo-Christian expression of the national observance, based on our understanding that this country was birthed in prayer and in reverence for the God of the Bible."
