2012 Prayer

"My goal is to know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, assuming that I will somehow reach the resurrection from among the dead. Not that I have already reached the goal or am already fully mature, but I make ever effort to take hold of it because I also have been taken hold of by Christ Jesus." Philippians 3: 10-12

Earthly or Heavenly Eyes?


“You have a wonderful child.” 
“Your child is so well-behaved.”  
“Your children get along so well.”   
“Your child did great on the field today.”   
And the list goes on as to what we desire to hear from other parents and adults regarding our children.  But is this what we as parents should be seeking after—the praise of man?  What is important when it comes to teaching our children—good grades, behavior, athletic achievement?  Psalm 78:1-8 is a great reminder in bringing our focus back to the importance of teaching our children what God desires for us to teach them.
