Notes

This topic is one of the most influential and impactful things in our life.

 

A fulfilling life doesn’t just happen, we need to overcome hard and difficult things.

 

Fulfilling Job

Fulfilling Friendships

Fulfilling Marriage
Fulfilling Parenting


Without the pain of struggle our kids will lack the confidence and strength they need to overcome the real difficulties of a fulfilling life.


And a voice came from heaven: “You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased.” Mark 1:11-13


At once the Spirit sent him out into the wilderness, and he was in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals, and angels attended him. Mark 1:11-13


…was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, where for forty days he was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and at the end of them he was hungry. Luke 4:1-2


Trials aren’t a lack of love…

It’s love building strength and believing the best of us!  


Fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:2


No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it. Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees. Hebrews 12:11-12


Principles


● Purpose vs. Pleasure

● Unavoidable Difficulty 
 (discipline/dysfunction)

● Lesser builds important


Love resists the urge to remove every difficulty so children develop the strength needed for a fulfilling life.


There’s no such thing as a perfect parent

God provides an unconditional and unfailing love for us and our children


Help train our children how-to overcome hard and not avoid it so they can experience a fulfilling life.
