Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them:
Roman 12: 6a (NKJV)
It is good to tell children who they are, but it is best to let our children discover themselves.
Allowing our children discover by themselves who is one of the best things we can do for our children. Sadly must parents miss this.
Our children may look like us, or course basic biology explains why. However, no matter how striking out resemblance with our children might be, we should never lose sight of the fact that our children are not us!
Our scripture reference today makes that much clear; they have gifts and talents that are different from ours and unique to them, given to to them by God. Let me make something a little bit clearer at this point; you could be a musician and also give birth to a child who is gifted in music, but if you pay attention you will see that that child definitely has a unique trait as regards his or her musical abilities.
So, we as parents must realize that our children are unique and we must be willing to play our role of providing parental guidance that will help them recognize their unique interests and talents, while providing the needed parental motivation and support for them to help them pursue those interests and build up those talents.
Think & Act
… it is best to let children discover themselves.
Prayer
In the name of Jesus, my children will fulfill purpose. In the name of Jesus, I receive grace to guide, motivate and support my children to fulfill purpose. Amen!
