Isn't it just like a Mom to worry about her children from the moment she knows they are coming? Isn't it just like a Mom to cry her heart out for them when they have pain? And just like Mom we have to let them go to be what they are to be. And we still worry. But the Good News tells us Moms that we have been given a precious opportunity to have part in the molding of a life- from infant to adult- and that committed to Christ, our child will grow and be drawn toward the cross. Mom's that work into their lives and practice in front of the child a Godly life will have joy in watching the child grow in Christ. And those Mom's - like me and my Mom- who didn't know God's word as we raised ours also have this hope: That as we walk so will our children be drawn to Christ -not because of us but because of Him. The promise is to us and our household that as we come[came] to Christ our families also will be drawn. As a Mom I rejoice in this daily that nothing I have done takes credit for the fact that my children know Christ as Saviour.
3 John 4, " I have no greater joy than to hear my children walk in truth" Amen? If you did not raise your children in Christ because you were not walking - there is still time. PRAY.
