The rod and rebuke give wisdom,
But a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.
Correct your son, and he will give you rest;
Yes, he will give delight to your soul.
Proverbs 29:15-17
Did you know that God has the answer to every question you have? Did you know He will give you the answers you need if you only ask? If only you take the time to wait on Him and open your heart to hear what He has to say. I'm so thankful for that! He is faithful to always give me the answers I need if I exercise patience, and truly wait on Him!
Training children is a hard task. I've found myself tested in the areas of being diligent and consistent. The Lord has reminded me how important it is to keep my children close, and deal with any issues that arise before they become issues. If I see the beginning of a poor attitude I need to nip it before it becomes full blown self pity and pouting. If I hear the beginning of an argument I need to stop it and remind them to love one another and give preference each other over themselves.
I've been so blessed by godly wisdom lately (thanks W/S ladies, you know who you are!) but even more so by God's own word. He is faithful to give me reminders when I remember to bring my problems to Him first!
I can not raise godly children in my own strength. I am a sinner just like them, but I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me. He knows my exact situation, and He loves my children even more than I ever could!
