#724: Music to Your Ears

Music to your ears?Ludwig van Beethoven is recognized as one of the greatest composers of all time. But did you know that he wrote five sonatas and his famous Ninth Symphony while completely deaf? The secret to his success was his passion for music. That and a whole bunch of hard work and dedication.As parents, we may not have the musical genius of Beethoven, but we can still create wonderful harmony within our homes. Begin by providing your son a consistent tempo of training, and a steady melody of encouragement. Add to that an upbeat rhythm of physical fun, and the vibrato of adventure. The resulting chords of growth will prepare your son to perform his own creative solo. And in doing this, his life will be a lasting crescendo that brings glory to God.For more encouragement and parenting advice, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.
