This is one of the most inclusive, positive, challenging, convicting, truth-filled writings on godly Christian parenting I have ever read! <BR/><BR/>It is a struggle to 'swim upstream', and the temptation to roll over on my back and let the current carry me off to the 'school of fish' with seemingly lesser values is strong. (My mind is picturing a scene from the children's movie "Finding Nemo" right now!)<BR/><BR/>Thanks for this tremendous word of encouragement. Often if feels like I'm in this alone, but 'though none go with me, still I will follow - no turning back, no turning back'.<BR/><BR/>Praying for strength to resist the pull of the current,<BR/>JoyJoyfulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00010498759199040612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154405870041249691.post-61836605502246101922008-08-22T15:55:00.000-04:002008-08-22T15:55:00.000-04:00Amen and Amen!

We see areas where we fell short but God picked up the pieces quickly and we got back on track, but we were committed to Kristyn the way you are to your children, even when the "world" was different. Stay strong! I'll be praying for you.Laurie Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10125770034519297114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154405870041249691.post-62699199436766684402008-08-22T12:05:00.000-04:002008-08-22T12:05:00.000-04:00Yes ma'am I agree...we are parents 24 hours a day ...Yes ma'am I agree...we are parents 24 hours a day and thankfully Christians 24 hours a day too! The two aren't just titles, they are who we are in the life God has given us. And yes, both come with blessed responsibilities and God-directed duties. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for reminding us of this before school starts up again!<BR/><BR/>"Pour out your heart like water before the face of the Lord.
