I always say as a parent- you don’t take the blame for bad choices in our adult offspring but then again you don’t take the credit for good choices. Just be thankful.
So many children are brought up to be rockstars, legends in their own eyes, lied to about how talented they are. A right assessment of our children is the best gift that we can give. They are made in the image of God and He has a plan and a purpose for their lives but it is up to them to follow or not follow the Lord. Our best gift is the bring them to have choices and then just pray.
I'm not a mom. But, I 've enjoyed the many beautifully written tributes to Mother's Day. This one stands out. It is different. Thank you, Denise for your wisdom on raising humans who love the Lord.
Thank you for:
Raise humans that look to God to sustain them in every circumstance.
God is the Author of their lives.
Denise you have a beautiful way with words
This is beautiful, Denise.
I appreciate your wisdom, Denise!
Another counter cultural “wearable” message could be “Raising sheep, not lions”
Sounds more biblically accurate than its opposite I’ve seen on bumper stickers :)
Thank you for this beautiful post! Your words from One Last Note… was a much needed one to read. Thank you!
God owns them when they become adults, not us…
Blessed Mother’s Day to you. 🕊️
