Today's prompt led to a journal entry that came very naturally to me. There are so many things I wish for our children. But the hard part is selecting just one to highlight for my journal entry. Here is what I decided on...
Raising boys into godly men is something of a particular challenge. It's not something C and I take lightly, but there are days when it seems just about impossible! We shall not give up. I know the Lord has great plans for these boys. These future men. I am blessed to be a part of their journey.
While I'm on the subject, I thought I should mention a book our older two sons have particularly enjoyed. It is His Mighty Warrior: A Treasure Map from Your King, by Sheri Rose Shepherd. It is written as if our Father is speaking directly to His son(s). Each section includes a letter from God to the boy/reader, a Scripture verse and then a prayer for the boy to pray back to God. It is written in a really impactful way that captures the attention of the most adventurous boys -- it really challenges them to become warriors for the Lord. Check it out.
The picture is great and the goals are inspiring.
ReplyDeleteA challenging, but fulfilling path for the boys to take on. (and for you and C, too!)
