I’ve Given Up On Parenting Advice

Well, not really, but I’m getting there. Over at Intent, one mom has learned to shrug off the advice of others and hear the voice of God for her own family.

I think if we listen more to the voice of God instead of looking to some formula on raising our kids, we all would be better off for it. Less stress, less comparison, more grace, more understanding.

I’ve gone from one extreme to the other. To authoritative discipline to seemingly no discipline at all. I’m trying to settle in the middle somewhere. It isn’t easy, but the journey will be worth it if I keep my eyes on the One who created my children as individuals and keep my ears open to his direction.

From the day I received my first diary in the second grade, I've had a passion expressing myself through writing. Later as a journalist and novelist, I realized words, if used powerfully, have the ability to touch, stir, and reach from the depths of one soul to another. Today as a writing and health coach, I inspire others to live their extraordinary life and encourage them to share their unique stories.
