Parenting – Is It Controlled Chaos?
In a chaotic and confusing world, let’s get grounded…microwave VS. crockpot.
1. Psalms 127:3, “Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, The fruit of the womb a reward.” *ESV unless otherwise noted.
A gift from the Lord in a Society that puts a low value on children –
PRACTICAL APPLICATION: focus on the blessing not the difficulties.
2. 2 Tim. 3:15, “And how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.”
To make someone familiar with the scriptures and the application – church is supplemental education.
The more you know the Scriptures, the more you know Christ – the more your kids know…
PRACTICAL APPLICATION: pick one point for the week and teach on it [WCF is supplemental].
Throwing vs using scripture.
3. Matthew 6:34 (NASB), “So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
To allow one’s mind to dwell on difficulty or troubles.
Prov. 12:25, “Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression, But a good word makes it glad.”
Will your post build…, will it encourage, will it unify and already divided nation?
SIMPLIFYING CHILDHOOD MAY PROTECT AGAINST MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES By Raised Good – Parenting by Nature: http://raisedgood.com/extraordinary-things-happen-when-we-simplify-childhood/
“Kids were off building forts, making bows and arrows, collecting bruises and bloody knees and having the time of their lives. They were immersed in childhood.”
Early in his career, Kim Payne volunteered in refugee camps where children were dealing with post-traumatic stress disorder. He describes them as, “jumpy, nervous, and hyper-vigilant, wary of anything novel or new.”
Years later Payne ran a private practice in England, where he recognized many affluent English children were displaying the same behavioural tendencies as the children living in war zones half a world away. Why would these children living perfectly safe lives show similar symptoms?
Payne explains that although they were physically safe, mentally they were also living in a war zone of sorts, “Privy to their parents’ fears, drives, ambitions, and the very fast pace of their lives, the children were busy trying to construct their own boundaries…”
Too much stuff, too many choices,
