I saw links to the Training Hearts blog on two different blogs I frequent today; and so I thought -- why not? I am so glad I did. Tamara, the author of Training Hearts is offering this lovely Training Hearts Award for all those of us who will agree to this pledge; which I do. I will enjoy having this beautiful reminder of my pledge. Thank you Tamara,
“Oh, that their hearts would be inclined to fear me and keep all my commands always, so that it might go well with them and their children forever!” Deuteronomy 5:29
Committment Pledge:
We are a Christian family desiring to raise our children with the primary focus of Training their Hearts!
“I have no greater joy, than to hear my children walk in truth..”III John 1:4
“Train up the child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”Proverbs 22:6
“Oh, that their hearts would be inclined to fear me and keep all my commands always, so that it might go well with them and their children forever!” Deuteronomy 5:29
The bottom line is; We try not to insist on parent-led learning or gravitate toward child-led learning. We try instead to focus on God-led learning and ask for His input and perspective on every aspect of our home school. That way, when others fuss about what Dan and I are doing and make me second guess our decisions -- I can go back to our decision process and find God's fingerprints, reminding me that this is His way.
