This week I asked God to let me join him in seeing Elaina into the life and plan he has for her.
I know as her mom I struggle with my hopes, dreams and desires for her.
God has a much better, mind blowing mission for her and I want to follow him, as he leads me, to lead her!
Something I learned from the PC (plane crash) was, God knows everything and although I only see a small portion he sees the whole. Glory, Hallelujah!
I see characteristics, personality traits, likes/dislikes in E and I also have my own ideas of how to raise her to have a heart for Jesus, His world and people.
God knows better!
My prayer today and for our future as her parents is: "Let me love you first (pursue my walk with you intently), help me listen to how you want us to raise (address moment to moment issues) E. I will step out of the way and let you do your work in her life. May I not be a hindrance to her by doing what I think is best. I will follow your lead in parenting her. THANKS FOR GRACE. Help me stay humble.
