It requires fellowship, do you remember who shared the gospel with you? Do you recall the time they spent with you? It’s all the same for our children, that’s our focus. It requires someone sharing Gods love and forgiveness. It requires someone to introduce you to the gospel. Just because we believe in God, it doesn’t mean our children are saved. Our children are sinners in need of Christ too, regardless of what people may want to believe about their children. It’s so easy for us as mothers to forget that our children are souls that we are to mold to Christ. Not in light of our short life here on earth. We are called to parent in light of eternity. The hugs, the kisses, and the sweet drawings are just a few of the beautiful things we get to experience as mothers but it’s not what motherhood is about. They run up to me to show me their drawings and how they can do a cartwheel while I’m holding our newest addition. Their little eyes glitter, it’s almost like their little souls know they can trust me that I will care for them and there’s no need to worry.

3 John 1:4 “I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.”Īs I write this I’m staring on and off at my three children, their little faces, hands, and huge smiles radiate with joy when they catch me staring at them.
