Well, since nobody else has posted, at least this Catholic thought it was an excellent article.

Thanks for posting this! I was feeling down on myself today and this put some things into perspective for me.

You see though I have never been a father, I am a dad to five. My wife was a widow with three small children when we married and when my sister and her husband were killed in a car accident we adopted their two children.

I had always looked at myself as their savior, as their knight in shining armor, but it was they who had saved me. Being a dad made me a man. And it was in answer to my children's prayers that I came to know God nine years ago.

Thanks again for posting this and God bless.
