Our Kids Need Our Care, Cautioning, & Correction

Parenting was my focus when I preached on Genesis 34 a couple weeks ago.  So, I thought I would post the questions I asked for self-reflection.  
 
What do you need to do?
 
Do you need to increase your care and concern for your kids?  If you don’t have it naturally, pray for it.
 
Do you need to really follow God yourself, so your kids get a better model to follow?
 
Do you need to stop assuming everything is going to be okay because your kids are in a Christian home and around the church, and do you need to take a more active role in training them?
 
Have you abdicated primary responsibility for our kids to anyone else, and need to take that responsibility back?  Maybe, you have abdicated primary responsibility for their discipleship to the church, and need to take the responsibility to teach them the Lord’s ways yourself.
 
Do you need to reestablish influence in your kids’ lives?
 
Do you let your kids do what they want, without correction, and you need to change that?
 
Do you need to put more boundaries in their lives to protect them from evil harm?
 
 
I know being a parent is hard work.  But you can do it.  God is with you.  Be strong and courageous to take action, and keep going.
