The #1 way to pursue my child's heart: ask heart-searching questions versus fact-finding questions. Try it and it may change your life forever. I think this has changed me from a preacher to my kids to a caring parent.

I totally judged someone by calling them "shallow" in my mind. Then months later I had a one-on-one conversation and I was floored with how deep, transparent, and honest this person was. There is room for grace in relationships and first-encounters.

Every parent coached their kids to walk by 100% encouragement; well, they would have reaped rewards of they did. I don't think good coaching, in any sport or aspect, is fruitful if it is predominantly a berating and mocking of the person receiving the "coaching."

this is take 10. I became angry during this recording then realized it was my idols of control, comfort, and control that opened the door for anger. This was the real deal rebound. Surrender to God and let him rejoice through me when there was no joy in me. Thank you Lord for your grace.

Not many people get this one right? I was for sure off, which was the root of a lot of frustration and foolish behavior. Had I simply aligned my needs with Philippians 4:19 I might have saved myself a lot of self-induced misery. But God in his grace is so good to me I am able to thank him for forgiveness today and keep the press on. Come join the fight.
