- Nurture
Now there's little you can do about Nature and some people may also have minimal control about the environment or community where their child is being raised but a parent can wield the most influence when it comes to nurturing her seed.
Nurture - the PROCESS of caring for and encouraging the growth or development of someone.
It begins in the womb but it has no end time.
You do your best- that child is a seed that must be watered, led by light, strengthened with a firm foundation and protected from pests and adverse conditions till the time is right for it to be transplanted.
The following are simple tips for doing just that
- Fill your child daily with grace through bible based prayers
- Express love and praise
- Apply appropriate discipline (not punishment)
- Give good food
- Teach sound doctrine
- Expose your child to positive influences
Over the following weeks, we will be looking at these and more, in greater depth, so don't forget to drop by.
Line upon line, precept upon precept, it will all come together, the child will be built and all trained up! And we will all be looking at Greatness personified - all because you did your own part! I believe you can.
Warm love,
Grace
