Just give me my moment!
As a mom of four girls, there is NEVER a dead moment.
Sometimes I may feel as if I haven’t grasped enough time to be alone by myself, to just seek God. I hate to feel as if I have put God on the back burner.
So it is no wonder I schedule everything in. Yes, schedule.
Seek…
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
Matthew 6:33 NIV
Parents have to have time to seek God on their knees away from their children and any distractions. It is wonderful to pray with the entire family. But make sure that you get the alone time you need with God. Sitting at the feet of Jesus in your quite space.
When you, as parents, are able to get alone and pray, your family praying together will be tremendous! Encourage your children to pray on their own as well.
Set the stage for them, by allowing them to see your quite space. Tell them, when you are here, “DO NOT BOTHER ME.” Unless its an emergency! LOL.
You can begin to do this by age 6+, for younger kids, keep them entertained with something, while you go pray. Take any time you can. Even if it doesnt last long, you must have it.
Be encouraged today.
