Parenting...Lessons To Be Learned Daily
If your a parent, you know exactly where I am coming from on this blog today. Children are a blessing in your life, no matter how they enter it. God gives us what we need, when we need it. Not what we want and when we want it. So, 6 years ago this year my first child was born. When I was told I couldn't get pregnant on my own I was devastated. Luckily, God knew before me that it was set for me to have a child. I was able to take Clomid and got pregnant. Praise Him! Six long years later, My daughter LauraBeth has grew up to be a strong, stubborn, willed, loving, full of imagination, always remembers what you say kinda girl. That all being said, I also have a 2 year old who's energetic, and a tomboy to boot. Last but not least, is my 4month old son. Needless to say my home is not quiet! I love and adore all 3 of my children. Being a parent there are daily learned lessons for life. Everyday something new is developed.I want to raise my children in a Godly manner and be the example they need to follow even throughout adulthood.
I found online a calendar called 31 Biblical Virtues to pray for your children. I am going to start it Jan 1st 2014. You are welcome to do this also for your own kids. I can't wait to start it and pray that God will speak to them each day in some way for them to understand.
Please watch over our precious children each day and help us as parents to live the right way. Those little eyes are ears are watching our every move! Lord make every choice, word, action we make be pleasing to you God as well as an example to our children. Give us the strength to have patience and a loving open arm for their comfort. Giving these children back to you is a blessing. Making them "fishers of men" or training them to be in "the Lord's army" as they grow year after year. Grant us wisdom and knowledge to grow stronger in your word ourselves so that we can apply it in our family and pass this down for generations to come. Thank you Lord for our children no matter how they came into our lives, they are a blessing from you God. We are forever grateful to you for each of them.
In your precious name,
Amen.
