"Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ." 1 Corinthians 11:1
I was reading this in my Bible this morning and thought I would share with all of you. As a mother, you have a unique position, both as a parent and as a child of God. Moms know what is best for their children. Our rules are for their good. We know that our children will be happier if they obey. In the same way, God, our heavenly Father, has rules meant for our good. Do we obey Him the way we want our children to obey us? Because if we don't, guess who is watching? Choose to openly obey God in front of your children. It isn't always easy in the fast paced world that we live. We get cut off in traffic and what do we say or how do we act? It is hard to be patient and forgiving but those are 2 great qualities I want my child to have. There will always be little eyes watching and little ears listening even when we think they are not. What strengths do you want your children to inherit from you? Be the model you want them to follow.
