It has been my joy to have been a parent for the past 28 years! When I think about this, it is overwhelming that God would entrust four children to me! I’ve definitely “asked God for wisdom” and He has graciously “given it to me liberally!” I trust that through the blogging of parenting topics and tips that I can be of encouragement to you as you consider, or continue parenting.
When one begins any task or project, setting expectations is critical. Therefore, when it comes to the important role of parenting, that provides a very important expectation. Should children look and act like their parents? Undoubtedly, through genetics, they will look somewhat like their parents, but in the end, the goal needs to be they look like Christ. Since we aren’t speaking of the physical aspect of looks, we are going to seek to have children look like Christ in their actions. That is why I have devoted so much of the parenting book I wrote to biblical guidelines.
I trust through this information, that you will seek God for His guidance. The reward for seeking God is finding Him, and I pray that as you do, it will continue to encourage you in your parenting, for God’s glory and your good!
I’m looking forward to interacting with you via this blog in the future, and may the Lord bless you as you faithfully serve Him while discipling your children!
