GOD'S GRACE IN LITERATURE

“Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6

I am so thankful for God’s word being perfect truth and instruction for our lives. Being that Mike and I will be older parents, the Lord has matured us in many ways. As much as I have always wanted children I am thankful for God’s waiting period and the grace He has shown me during this time. Mike and I’s desire for our children isn’t just for them to be well-behaved but to truly love the Lord and be servants of Christ. We know that salvation lies in the hands of the Lord but are so thankful for the hope that is provided in prayer. During these 9 months of pregnancy Mike and I have been studying as much as we can on parenting from God’s word and from godly literature. I have linked both my favorite books and his favorites. If you have children or hope too one day I pray you enjoy these as much as we did! ♡

“Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. ‘Honor your father and mother,’ which is the first commandment with promise: ‘that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.’

And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord. Ephesians 6: 1-4
