Thanks so much! It’s sooooo hard not to become consumed with trying to be or do “more”. I struggle with it almost everyday. You’re absolutely right about the need to regroup and then simplify according to God’s will. Thanks for sharing!

God really convicted me of that this week. I noticed that I was very preoccupied with something God did not have in His plans for our family. I also realized that last year, I was caught up in ‘becoming’ more – but really, was helping someone else become ‘more’ and it was not godly. This year, I will have a laser focus on my family – and helping others learn to disciple through really living a life following Christ. Beautiful post.

Excellent quote about “raising adults.” I’ll keep that one in mind on those hurried days in particular.

That’s so true about kids asking to learn! It’s funny that we can feel like we have to pull teeth to get them to learn during “school” when they’re really wanting to learn all the time…lol.

With my kids being delayed and having some special needs we have a tendency to forget that we have to push them. They have some chores and with my older child we try to support her to learn to manage shops and things which is hard for her. I read something recently that struck a chord with me – ‘we aren’t raising children, we are raising adults.’ Still, it is nice to baby them sometimes…..

My kids are 5 and 2.5 and a lot of the time I feel like it is easier for me to just do something myself. Of course it is easier, because they don’t know how to do the task! By wanting to help me cook and clean and any number of other things, they are asking to learn. For the past several months I have been trying really hard to be conscious of those questions, and my response to them. Obviously it takes longer, but if I teach them to do now, they will be able to learn and actually help later.
