The book is about the character of nehemiah, who dropped everything to greet his brother when he showed up. The author asks how do you deal with interruptions in your daily life? He also shares a story where he was pulled over by police for speeding and got two tickets - one for stopping too quickly but another for going too slowly.
The life of Nehemiah can be tied to fatherhood in several ways. One is the opportunities we take to show love to our families. Nehemiah was always concerned with how others were progressing through life. Are we having intentional conversations and making sure everything is ok with our kids (even if they're out of the home)? Do we ask them for ways we can pray for them? As dads, we need to be present and diligent with our kids. It is time we will long for when it's gone but can never get back.
