Beholding...

My Children!

behold = gaze upon, carefully observe

Our Savior was a master at beholding people.
He listened, cared for and loved them all.

God wants us to behold our children and nurture them in a home filled with love, peace and security.

I believe we can not fully love our children until we behold our children.
Are you beholding yours?

kairos = opportune moment, a moment in which something special happens

We behold our children when we focus on kairos moments with them.


We, as parents, are to be life-givers to our children and in our home. 
Do our homes invite an atmosphere to create and celebrate kairos moments with our children?


What we do at home sets the tone for future generations.
What are you doing in your home?


To Love our Children...

we must behold them...

WE MUST BE FULLY PRESENT!!

Hut - Hut - HIKE!
