Building a Home

 

I remember as a young mother looking at my babies and  thinking, ”Who thought it would be a good idea to give us these two tiny people and expect us to guide, protect, provide for them? To build a home for them?” It felt like an overwhelming task.

Being a parent and building a home has been the most joyful, heartbreaking, difficult, happy, painful, interesting, exhilarating journey.

There isn’t a parenting manual in the Bible, but there is a verse that has carried me, Proverbs 24:3 “By wisdom a house is built and through understanding it is established.”

How do I build a home? By wisdom found only in knowing God. By knowledge, found only in His truth. By understanding, found only in walking daily with Him

I’m still on the journey of knowing Him. Are you? Let’s journey together.


“How do I build a home? By wisdom found only in knowing God. By knowledge, found only in His truth. By understanding, found only in walking daily with Him.”


Proverbs 24:3

 “A house is built by wisdom and becomes strong through good sense.”
