loving as a christain mom in a hail mary world!

What I find most interesting is the fact that "children are a gift and the gift comes at a New York price sometimes" and yet their is times the gift can be of the New York style and cost you nothing or cost you your heart and bank account.



I compare my children and realize the great difference is salvation. One has it secured and honors God and her relationship with Christ. Not painful or difficult to be a mom when you get this package. It only requires you as a parent be faithful in the role of parenting and follow the choices laid in the Word. I know the person she is no doubt is because of my committment to Christ and choosing to grow as a mom whom needed to learn lessons in parenting. by some difficult tackles, and leaving me feeling sacked some days.



I don't have a real clear picture on "the cliche good seed/bad seed. But what I do have is the knowledge that all comes from Christ and it is our responsibility to keep them with him. All choices require some form of action - mental, physical, emotional,verbale, but yet they are also met with some form of reaction. It is as if choices are the offense or defense of the team. and the score is being kept. Accountability for the choice is not about the game it is about the team.

I seek to be the mom God would claim worthy of his team.

I seek to know when I need to release the hail mary!

Why does it take tactical strategy to have the ability of loving as a christain mom, simply put because of the world we have created and the sin that goes around as this earth spins.

To accomplish this you must have bibical principals and get the team pumped and ready to raise a child. A team is both offense and defense, it can include you as the parent, your childs teachers, your neighbor, your elders , your friends, your pastor. All of these people have an influence upon your child. So be selective not exclusive or reclusive when you expose your child to the influence of others.

Be prepared to schetch the plays for the rule book, be prepared to sit the bench, be prepared to block, be prepared to tackle, be prepared to know when you are not playing by the rules God aligned for us, and when they fumble, be prepared to recover. In parenting I am finding it most difficult to love my son, as Mary loved Christ. But yet he speaks so clearly when I recall just throw the hail mary, and that is when the score will turn to the favor of GOD. Relinquish your desires for the child and let GOD have his own desires play out. It will be painful but put on your helmet and pads. The bruisng will disappear under the blood of Christ.

I urge you if you are struggling with this in life . Throw the hial mary. That is what it will take to become loving as a christain mom in a hail mary world.

Lets play the game!
