We must develop the mindset of Christ, not this world. The opposite of God’s wisdom is ignorance, foolishness, and absence of discernment resulting in mistakes and disappointments. As we submit to God in humble acknowledgement of Who and What He is, the Holy Spirit is able to work within us, imparting wisdom and understanding through illumination by Him. There is a right by God’s standards and a right by the codes of this world or our personal preference. They are vastly different. Let’s find out how to recognize the difference.

Whatever rules the of my child and whatever rules my heart will rule our relationship and behaviors. My child is not saved by following my authority, but through submitting to His.
