Leaving Room | Ephesians 6:1-4, Galatians 6:1, Proverbs 31:27-28, Matthew 7:1-2
from The Bible For Busy People · host Purposely
Finishing out this week we're touching base on leaving room/space for our kids in the faith walk. Leaving room means judging can't be part of your relationship with your child. Does this mean that you can't have a clear understanding of what God's word says is appropriate living an appropriate lifestyle habit? No. It doesn't mean that. What it does mean is that when you see one of your children living in a way that you don't think aligns, go back into your own work to clean house first. What in your life is not part of what God would have for you? Where has gossip snuck in? Where has anger snuck in? Where has gluttony snuck in? Do that work.Leave room for God to do work in your child's life. Walk in the love of Jesus, model the love of Jesus, and in that way by loving others well, you fulfill the law. It comes from a place of gentleness. This word is so powerful. Gentleness won't create a defensiveness. Gentleness is, I love you. Tell me what's on your heart. Tell me your concerns. Help me understand where you are coming from. Let's start there.Show Notes: https://bit.ly/3qRFFmx----------------We’d love to encourage you to spend even more time in the word.
