![]() Are you discipling your kids? If you want to see how you’re doing, click here. Even eyeing the hope for a child’s future when perseveringly raised in Christ. Dads, in the same way, can consider this scripture through the hardship of pursuing being a godly father. He shows us that a mother’s pain in delivery is overshadowed when the work of God (the baby) is brought into the world. Jesus blesses us through the illustration of bringing a child into the world. “A woman giving birth to a child has pain because her time has come but when her baby is born she forgets the anguish because of her joy that a child is born into the world.” God makes no mistakes, and each child is intentional and fully known, wonderfully gifted through you to your care. Your eyes saw my unformed body all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.”ĭad, no matter the events surrounding a baby’s conception, each child is a magnificent work of art created by God. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made your works are wonderful, I know that fully well. “For you created my inmost being you knit me together in my mother’s womb. Like returns on great investment, grandchildren are the beautiful jewels of grandparents who poured so well into their own children’s upbringing. “Grandchildren are the crown of the aged, and the glory of children is their fathers.” In this way, dads are like warriors, and kids are like arrows aimed to hit their targets of God’s purpose for their life. Instead, they are to be of great value, cared for, and raised in Christ, shaping them to be all God has called them to be. “Burdens” or “ inconveniences ” are the opposite of what children are meant to be to us. Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them they shall not be ashamed, but shall speak with their enemies in the gate.” Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are the children of one’s youth. “ Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD. He knew the wonderful impact kids would have on us and, ultimately, His Kingdom. But the wonder of children is no surprise to God. Each season they get older, I experience the wonderful gifts they are to us. Just when I think I have my head wrapped around how awesome our little girls are, the beauty of who they are shines even brighter and blows my mind. Frankly, they’ve managed to paint challenges on everything we do yet bring more love, light, and clarity into our home. Our twin girls have been such a blessing to our life. I’ll never forget the summer Olivia and I nearly hollered in the ultrasound room when the nurse smiled, saying, “looks like there’s two in there.” Ever since that day, our life has never been the same. ![]()
