Faith@Home Mom Insight #5

Well, you can be overwhelmed right now or you can just get started somewhere doing something of what God has commanded you to do. To be honest…getting overwhelmed is not an option. Getting overwhelmed is like saying to your child “since I think I might fail at this or don’t want to look foolish in front of you or I don’t have time to add ONE more thing to my plate, then I am not going to try at all.” Sorry, not acceptable. It doesn’t matter if the only thing you start with is saying a blessing before a meal EVERY time you eat. Or asking your child when they jump in the car EVERY day, “Hey, any blessings God showed you today?” Or waking them up EVERY morning with a small prayer of thanks for the day that is to come. Did you catch what was key? EVERY. When the journey begins between you and your kids, it has to be intentional. Without the intent, without the non-negotiable behavior, without the “stick to it” determination, it will fall away like all great things that start on a Monday with gusto and end on Saturday with a fizzle. Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.

Faith@Home Mom Insight #4

I am finding that my parenting now with my thirteen year old daughter is taking more time than when she was an infant. When she was an infant she needed me for nurturing and general hands on care but now those things have diminished and instead I’m spending far more time with her and her friends. For some reason we have become a “hub house” where Malyn and her friends will come and hang out and I pretty much find myself in the middle of their conversations and activities. A lot of times I find myself wondering why they would invite me into their conversations yet I usually find that the primary role I’m playing is to be a steadying force in their unsteady world. Many times I am simply a sounding board or reminder to help keep them focused on doing life God’s way. In a world of so many options for them, they need a place to turn where they can know what is truly right and wrong. That’s a role we get to play as Faith@Home focused moms.

D6 Conference 2010

In D6, God calls parents to be the primary spiritual leaders in the lives of their children, and it’s the church’s job to partner with them in this process. Yet, so many churches have realized they do not have a spiritual formation model that is designed to develop and grow God’s plan for the family. So where do we go from here?
