It's Hard to Practice What You Preach...

Wow... isn't being a parent pretty difficult? I'm not too sure I would've signed on for this if I knew in advance what it would require... Just kidding... there probably wouldn't be many parents if they knew how tough it was BEFORE they had kids! I love my children, and thank God for the ways He has used my children to smooth off alot of my rough edges...(there are still so many more to go though!)...but I wouldn't trade them for anything!


Do you ever struggle with practicing what you "preach" in front of your children day in and day out?


I know I do... I am always telling them to be kind... watch what you say to your sister... apologize for being mean...


Sometimes, I stop and think... wow... I need someone to tell ME to watch what I say... and to apologize...


There is just no way that I can ever live what I "preach" to my children... except by the grace of God.
