“So if you, despite being evil, know how to give good gifts…”
— Matthew 7:11 NASB1995
🎁 Shaping Our Children’s View of God
As mothers raising older children, we have the opportunity to shape how they understand God’s character. Jesus’ words remind us that God’s heart is generous, wise, and good.
Our children will form their theology not only from sermons—but from how we speak about God in our homes. Let our language be filled with trust in His goodness, even in trials.
🗣 Family Conversation:
- How do we define “good” in our home? Is it comfort or Christlikeness?
- Share a time when a hard moment later proved to be a gift in disguise.
👣 Kingdom Practice:
Talk through the difference between earthly gifts and spiritual ones—how peace, forgiveness, or courage are some of God’s greatest blessings.
🙏 Prayer:
Lord, let our family treasure the gifts You give. Teach us to desire what You call good. 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.
