Heart of a Family, Common Sense Parenting with Wisdom from the Word From Chapter 6 Growing Your Faith, Mom

Growing Your Faith, Mom
At the Heart of it: Created to impart faith
Mom, you hold the next generation of Jesus' church in your arms and on your lap. You know that the job of a mother is never-ending. It's not just the laundry, the cooking, the doctor visits, or the car-pooling. It is a constant responsibility. Your child is totally dependent on you for what they need. 
You also know that in spite of these demands you wouldn’t change it. You still desire to hold your child in your arms. God’s plan for mothers was to be almost nutty in their nurturing; obsessed, almost, with making sure their children will be okay.
Remember yearning for a little toddler to call you “mommy”? You know the joy of watching the surprising and exciting growth of your kids.  God definitely designed women to desire children. He placed within a woman's heart the emotions and the instincts - and the sense of responsibility - to raise a child.
As faithful women of God, we Christian moms take seriously our role as mothers, knowing that God has entrusted us with the opportunity to train and teach the next generation of children.  Your faith; your relationship with God, has a profound impact on the lives of your children. They will live out their faith lives reacting to the way that you lived yours.
Moms are passing the faith from generation to generation- and have been since the beginning of the world. Perhaps the greatest contribution a mother makes is to raise her children in faith, love and holy living.
Take Action: Ask God for His wisdom and guidance in your life so that you will be the wise woman that your child needs to help them with their faith walk.
