Inspirational Bible Scriptures

Being a Parent, or for that matter a Grandparent, is one of life's most awsome responsibilities! We have the opportunity every day to influence the future in incredibly positive.... or not so positive ways. Think back over the last week and recall an exchange you had with your child. Did you miss a chance to pump them up with the tone you chose or the enthusiasm you didn't show. Did you miss the chance to correct the path they were headed down because you were distracted by the daily grind. These every day opportunities that come and go, in most cases without us even recognizing them, are the bricks that build the person our child will become.
"The words that a Parent speaks to their children in the privacy of home are not heard by the world, but as in whispering galleries they are clearly heard at the end, and by posterity." - Ricther
I, often, think ahead about what my children will be like when they grow up and become Parents themselves. Knowing they will become what they see and hear today, is a highly motivating factor for me as a Dad. Just remember, your children will grow up, and in large part, become YOU. Now, on that note, go out today and be the Parent you want your kids to grow up to be.
"Correct your children, and they will give you rest; Yes they will give delight to your soul." - Proverbs 29:17
