Being A Dad

So, I'm not sure how to say this but I'm having real doubts about my ability to be a good father. Don't get me wrong, I want nothing more that to be a father. But the euphoric high of finding out that I'm going to be one has started to wear off. And maybe it's just the voices in my head, but lately I've been getting more and more nervous about being responsible for another human live. I mean, I can barely take care of myself. How am I ever going to be able to take care of a baby. I mean, I love kids. But, so far, all the ones I've come in contact with were someone else's. And at the end of the day, I could give them back. this one is going to be MINE!!! It will come home with me. It will look to me to fulfill it's every need. I watch others do this and don't know if I can do it. I know, I know. I'm sure you're all thinking that I'm just being sill, or worrying too much. But I really don't know if I can do this. It brings me to tears to think of this little life-form depending on me, a broken child. You'll also say that I should pray for guidance. Pray that God would show me the way in which to raise up my child. I am doing this. But the problem is that the voices in my head seem to be louder that His. But don't worry. I long for nothing more that to give this child a good life. And I will do everything in my power to make sure that happens.
