Parenting is important to God. It is a ministry for Parents and legacy of faith. There are many scriptures in the Bible that talk about Parenting and motherhood. Proverbs talks about parenting a lot. in Proverbs 6:20 “My son keep your father command and do not forsake your mother’s teachings.” I realize this is talking to the child, but it shows the importance in what we are doing. The lord is telling the child to listen to what we are instructing, commanding, and teaching our children. We need to take a look at what we are teaching our children. What we are commanding. Even on our bad days are we reflecting the father? Are we teaching our children how to deal with things Biblically? Are we commanding in a Godly manner and what we command and teach fruitful in Gods eyes? When I really look at scripture and take a hard look at my ways. I realize Father I need your help. These children are your children just like I am your child. You gave me these beautiful children for a short time before they are grown. You are entrusting me in Teaching in your ways not my own. So, when they are grown, they do not depart from you father and your ways. Help me navigate doing this in a world who do not live your ways. Help me distinguish what I have been thought, passed down and your word. Help me brake generational teachings or cycles that do not align to your word. Open my eyes to your word and help me understand them. So, I can teach my children effectively.
