What It Means to Be a Man in the Gap

To stand in the gap is to stand where no one else will.

Between brokenness and healing. Between the past and the future. Between what was and what’s possible.

It means absorbing pain without passing it on. Holding space when no one claps. Being faithful when no one notices.

It’s not heroic. It’s not glamorous.

It’s obedience. It’s fatherhood. It’s faith in motion.

To be a man in the gap is to be like Jesus. Who stood between death and life — and chose the cross anyway.

So I’ll keep standing. In the gap. In grace. In love. In Him.
