It’s apparent … we have much for which to be thankful! Many times, in the middle of discipline, discussions, or decisions which need to be made that surround our children, we can become discouraged in the process of parenting. Please be reminded—and be thankful—for the privilege of being a mentor and a discipler, rather than being discouraged with the task.
God has said that we will reap if we faint not! I encourage you to continue to be thankful that you have the opportunity of rearing a disciple for Jesus Christ! That will change all perspectives as you reflect and become re-energized with that wonderful opportunity of bringing up children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord!
Think about and discuss this:
- Consider the words of Psalm 145:4, which promise that “One generation shall commend your works to another, and shall declare your mighty acts.”
- Had you thought of it as being a privilege to be a part of the continuum of God’s work in raising godly children in order that they, too, might raise their children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord?
- Join the conversation; I’d love to hear from you!
