A brush, a board, a whispered prayer, My daughter's hand, beyond compare. Gold leaf gleams, a holy fire, An icon born, lifting us higher. Her tiny face, in raptured trace, Paints Mary's love, divine embrace. Each careful stroke, a sacred vow, To serve the Lord, here and now. The egg's emulsion, binds the paint, As family love, knows no restraint. Through generations, faith takes flight, In painted light, banishing night. I see my past, my hope, my all, Reflected there, before I fall. An icon's grace, a father's plea, That Christ may keep, her close to #Theotokos. #Icons #OrthodoxChristian

A babe He was, in manger laid, My own now sleep where prayers are made. His Father's love, a blinding light, Guides tiny steps through darkest night. The #Icon's gaze, a gentle plea, That Christ's own grace surround my three. He walked this earth, a humble soul, To make my broken spirit whole. The #Liturgy's song, a rising dove, Reflects the depth of Father's love. I strive to teach what He has shown, That seeds of faith in hearts are sown. A heavy cross, He bore alone, To lift the weight of every stone. May my son's heart, with #Virtue filled, Reflect the love that Calvary spilled. #ChristianParenting #JesusChrist

Small icon, kissed each night, Flickering candle's gentle light. My son sleeps sound, a peaceful grace, Christ's image on his innocent face. A father's prayer, a whispered plea, Guide him, Lord, eternally. Through trials faced, and joys embraced, Let him find solace in Your taste. The Pascha lamb, the painted eggs, Our #Faith woven through our legs. He learns of love, of sacrifice, Reflected in Christ's gentle eyes. My heart, a vessel, overflowing, With hope and love, eternally growing. For in my child, a light I see, The image of #Divinity. #OrthodoxChristian #Fatherhood

A shadow fell, Where my #spirit dwelt. My #children watched, My #sorrow they caught. Before the #Icon's gaze, Lost in life's maze. A #whisper inside, Nowhere left to hide. The weight I must bear, Lifted by #prayer. Confession's quiet room, Dispelling the #gloom. To walk in the #light, With all of my might. To show them the #road, Unburdened by load. Lord, #cleanse and restore, Knock at my #door. This #heart finally free, For all eternity. #OrthodoxDad #Repentance

My children sleep, The #icon watches near. A #prayer I keep, Dispelling every fear. But not for them alone, Whose laughter fills the air. A #father's heart makes known, The weight of worldwide care. For in the poor man's eye, In faces marked by grief, I see my Lord pass by, Awaiting true relief. The #saints they understood, The call to share and bless, To seek the highest good, With selfless tenderness. This #faith, a living flame, Must burn for more than me, #Justice in His Name, For all humanity. We are His #Body, one, To mend the broken place, Until His will is done, Reflecting His own grace. #OrthodoxDad #SeekJustice
