He's In The Waiting

Mother’s Day – one of the more terrifying days for many husbands and children. How do we find a way to honour the woman who birthed us or our children? How do we find a card to express the measure of gratitude we feel? But we remember that Mom’s can also feel angst on a day like this. Am I being that parent who obsesses on secondary issues and neglects primary things? Am I going to parent the way my parents parented?! We all talk (jokingly mostly) about how our parents scarred us for life! How are we damaging our children?!

This weekend we’ll visit a very non-parental text from 1 Thess. 5 and consider what God might want to say to us about our role in our families. We’ll honour our Moms and we’ll embrace God’s truth for building healthier and happier homes. Parenting is certainly a journey – always has been and always will be. It takes courage. It takes hope. It takes Jesus to get it right. This will be a weekend filled with hope. I so look forward to being online with you!

Be blessed, be safe and be well.
