“Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine…”
— Matthew 7:6 NASB1995
🐚 Teaching Discernment at Home
As mothers guiding older children, it’s important to teach not only kindness—but wisdom. Jesus warned that not everyone will respect what’s sacred. It’s okay to walk away from mockery and entrust the situation to prayer.
Let’s help our children value their faith and use discernment in how they share it.
📖 Talk About It:
- Has your child ever been teased for believing in God?
- What did they do, and how can we encourage discernment without bitterness?
🧺 Kingdom Practice:
This week, talk about situations where it might be wiser to pray silently than to argue.
✍️ Prayer:
Lord, help us treasure what is holy and teach our children how to walk in truth with gentleness and wisdom. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
