The mold is growing in my shower,
as I am writing this. The next time you are feeling down while
cleaning your shower or that unidentifiable moldy leftover container, remind
yourself that as a mom, God has created you for one of the most
important jobs there is – MOLDING young lives.
Put down your scrub brush for a few minutes, and do some
fun MOLDING with your children. Get out the playdo, clay, jello, or make
popsicles in fun shapes and talk about how God has made us
individually wonderful and unique.
? - Ask your kids how and if they think God continues to mold us daily (for example, through God's Word, parents, role models, circumstances, etc.)
Philippians chapter one tells about how God is not
finished with us yet. Verse 6 says, "And I am sure of this, that He who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ."
? - Ask your kids and yourself, "How are you going
to respond to God's molding?
Moms, how are you responding to God's call to mold young lives? I hope it is not with the same attitude you have for that leftovers container? Make sure you are seeking God's strength and direction to purposefully and positively MOLD your youngsters while they are still wet cement. As time goes by, the tougher the molding becomes.
