Posted in On my heart
|
Before I start doing my daily household duties and the sorts I will write about what is on my heart. This has been a difficult week concerning parenting and training and just letting your children grow. First of all I want to say that I truely believe that I have the best children in the world. I am so proud of the people that they are and I would not change one single thing about them. Nevertheless; children or should I say teen-agers, will make bad choices now and then. I know I sure did and and am so thank-ful for the hand of God in my life to forgive and guide me back to where I am now. But the point that I want to get across here is the responsability of mothers to their children. When you chose to have a child or God has given you a child,you must realize that your every breath and action must be to nurture that soul and teach that child to one day be able to live eternally with God.Other than your relationship with God and your husband,nothing should come before your children. Not a girls night out, a hobby ,a meeting...Now I'm not saying that you should never do these things or that these things are wrong. What I am saying is that you must use every opportunity that you have to teach your children. Do not grow weary, this is the most rewarding job in the whole world. You should long to be in company with your children at all times,(they won't always want to be with you, but thats o.k.) I can't tell you how fast the time will go. It will literally be in the blink of an eye. You only have 18(give or take)years to tell them all you know. Please use every opportunity. Long for them when they are away from you, tell them they are your world, talk with them, answer the same question 100 times, keep all the dandelions they bring you on the window ledge over your sink. Hug and kiss them 50 times a day even in front of their friends.Let them see you cry. Do special things for them one at a time. Most of all pray for wisdom. Most of us can say that we have regrets when we look back. But now that we know what the true joy in life is we don't have to have these any longer. Make the most of every day.I will never understand what a mid life crisis is. Now that I am approaching 39 I finally have it all figured out. I have learned that just being with those I love is enough. Teach them Gods word, love them and pray,pray, pray! Never forget how lucky you are to be a mother! Luke 2:19 But Mary tresured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. |
