Parenting Is A Privilege
Do you get a little sick and tired of everything you have to do as a parent? Parenting can seem like a chore because of the chores that come with it- getting up with crying babies, chasing after toddlers, making meals, doing laundry, helping with homework, nursing sick kids, carting kids around. Parenting can seem like a bore because the chores are tedious and keep repeating day after day. But God elevates parenting to a high privilege by making parents his representatives to do his work for their (really HIS) children. When, by faith, we grasp that, we are able to keep doing the mundane, repetitious chores of parenting with a renewed spirit of eagerness and joy.
