Tuesday Tidbit

God Made Moms to Teach Their Kids…The Importance of Reading and Listening

How do we as parents expect our kids to show growth or progress in school when we don’t enforce reading outside the classroom? How do we expect them to learn more when we don’t re-enforce listening to their elders or others? And how do we expect them to get ahead when we don’t encourage them to ask questions to things they don’t understand or know? So how can we as Christians parents expect our children to grow in their relationship with God when they don’t read their bibles because they don’t enjoy reading? And how can we as Christians expect them to sit through weekly church services or listen to sermons when they haven’t been taught to listen for understanding? Some good questions to ask ourselves as parents and some good habits to implement for our growth as well as our children.

Be blessed and encouraged this year, it’s a choice. ~ Delphine
