We made it! The last day of our 31 Days to Impress Your Kids! I am blown away by all the fabulous sharing, comments and interaction there has been on these posts. I’m honored that you’ve been a part of these 31 days! THANK YOU!
Today’s post is a quick one. It’s what all these other 30 days have really been about: LOVE. We want to show our kids the real and true, never-stopping-never-giving-up-unbreaking-always-and-forever-love that Jesus has for us. And we want to show our kids how much we love them, too.
When we realize that our children are eternal beings who will spend eternity with God or separated from Him, our love for them will push us to impress them with God’s Word and love. In everything you do, whether it be taking your kids to church, picking out movies for them to watch or reading the Bible together, make sure you are doing it out of love! Parent with true love that is patient, kind, does not envy, or boast, is not proud or self-seeking. Show them love that is not easily angered or keeps a grudge. May you always protect, trust, hope and persevere as you are loving and raising your children!
Today, as we close this series, I have a special book giveaway for you. It’s written by Brennan Manning and John Blase and is called, Smack Dab in the Middle of God’s Love. Isn’t that fun? It’s about a husband and wife who open their home to the neighborhood children, just to show them God’s Love. And in their conversation, they discover that we are always right SMACK DAB in the middle of God’s Love!
I pray your home, your children and you will always know and feel smack dab in the middle of His love and plan for you!
{To enter to win the book, leave a comment–any comment will do, but I’d love to hear about your experience in our 31 days. Have you enjoyed it?}
