What is your child's most desperate need? Is it the best education? The best teacher? The best sports team? The best job? No, none of these. Your child's most desperate need is the need of God's mercy. I was surprised to see that many parents in our culture believe that children are born inherently good. Unfortunately, this does not match with biblical truth. Our children, and us, are born sinners in need of being saved. I share from Paul David Tripp's Parenting book 6 steps that we need to take in conversations with our children to help them understand they are sinners in need of being saved. Why is this so crucial? Because if they don't ever recognize their sin, cry out for God's mercy, and receive His forgiveness and cleansing, they will spend eternity separated from Him. This is important mamas. I know it can be a hard conversation but it is vital. It would be unloving if we didn't talk to our children about sin. I am praying for each one of you and I pray this episodes stirs your mind and heart. I pray it encourages you. May we approach our children knowing that we also are in desperate need of God's mercy. Love you mamas.
