Today it hit me that often I am trying to teach my children lessons that I struggle with and if I just learned to listen to what I try to teach my children, I might just be better off. Have you ever had that feeling?
Today we were discussing being thankful for what we have been given. That included four bullet points:
- Give thanks to God. We have MANY MANY things that other people do not and we should be thankful that God has blessed us abundantly.
- Be content with what we have.
- Take care of what we have.
- Don't waste what we have been blessed with.
I think this is a hard lesson for everyone but as I was talking to Dylan, it hit me that often I am not grateful and content with what we have and I so often want more. I am thankful that God put that little discussion on my heart so that I could remember that it is something that I struggle with also.
