“We must be the parents who become the flesh of Christ to our children!” In order to do that we need to know Him, LOVE Him, spend time with Him… LOTS of time with Him! “You must be a gardener of your own soul, and then a gardener of your children’s soul.” “You can’t pass on what you’re not living.” “The Proverbs 31 woman ‘clothed herself’ with strength and dignity… She had to ‘put’ it on. It’s a choice to be made.” “Godly, strong, overcoming women who have a testimony don’t happen by accident.” “You (and your children) are being groomed to become like Christ. Many times that’s done through difficulty.” “He desires not for you to be happy and shallow, but to be Holy.” “Our children learn how to believe & persevere by watching us. How do we handle trouble/discouragement?” Our children will be prepared for trials in life by seeing how we trust and lean on God in our sadness. “Your spirit is an example to others – how you walk with God is a model for your children to follow.” We can’t give our children what we don’t have. If we want them to know and love God. We need to know and love God. “Be a learner. Be curious about all that God has made (surround yourself with others who do the same).” “God isn’t calling you to be exhausted, He’s calling you to rest.” “Light a candle, put on music, get a real tea cup, make a pot of tea, invite someone to sit w/ you… & talk! Make some quiet time.” (Jesus went away to be alone and spent intimate time with friends.) “Everyone needs a place of quiet that is nurturing to your spirit, enriching your soul. What nurtures your heart & brings you closer to God?“
