Parenting by Example

As parents, we are entrusted with the most precious treasures...our children. For them, we need to set the best examples. Not examples of how to keep the cleanest house, be involved in the most activities, or working hour after hour to make the big money. Rather, let us be examples in how to commune with God in prayer and through His word and how to live boldly for Him by being examples of His love and choosing to do the right thing even when no one else is. It is a tremendous responsibility but an unmeasurable joy and blessing as well. Thank you, Father God, for this precious gift!

"Parents, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord." Ephesians 6:4
