It is disciplining with love which teaches our children how our heavenly Father disciplines and guides us to become the best we can be in this life. I think parents who avoid being parents are child abusers; they’ve reneged upon their duties, and will one day wonder why their children turned out to be the messes they are. Said a prayer for this poor, unfortunate little girl . . .
Blessings!

Just remember Dr. Stanley’s principle, Melissa: “obey God, (pray a lot), and leave all the consequences to Him!” The pray a lot is my addition :). I’ll say a prayer for you right now.

Thank you for all your encouragement, Walt! God has blessed us with sweet girls, so that makes it easier. We’ll see how the teenage years go… I’m not holding my breath for an easy ride 🙂 Blessings to you!

What an incredible example your girls are of children raised using God’s instruction, His wisdom shown in His principles and values. God has so blessed you and Steve so that the Light that shines in both of you has been transferred to your two girls. To God be the glory. May He continue to bless you, family and ministry as He uses you to impact the lives of others through your example, your writing and your speaking.

P.S.: Congratulations on your book contract. Blessed are those who wait on the Lord.
