Impress Your Kids. It’s a tongue-in-cheek title that calls back to a command found in Deuteronomy,
Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.Write them on the door frames of your houses and on your gates. (6:4-9)
This blog and this series is full of the small ideas and the big disciplines that I believe will impress God’s Word on my children’s heart more than anything else. We’ll talk about the practical and the philosophy of how we as parents use our days to show our kids God’s Word.
These are the things I feel like God has put on my heart as a mom. The things I feel like he maybe even gave me a little insight on. The things that make my heart pump and get my temperature rising. The stuff that makes me passionate about parenting.
I hope you’ll join me. And chat with me. Share your heart, your philosophies, your heart-pumping-ideas. Let’s take these 31 days together, ok?
