A Mess, Nonetheless

Isn't it so hard to be in relationships sometimes, or with people who seem to always be on the opposing side of what we're saying? In this episode Miss and Rach talk about parenting and other relationships. They share how Grace can and SHOULD be brought into every situation, with basically the promise that it will always be worth it!! They also talk about the gift that validating is to relationships - both in person, online and across the board!

 

Show Notes:

PROVERBS 22:6

Start children off in the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it. (NIV)

HEBREWS 4:12

For the word of God is alive and active. Sharp as a double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. (NIV)

JOSHUA 1:8

Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. (NIV)

COLOSSIANS 3:21

Fathers, do not embitter your children, or they will become discouraged. (NIV)

EPHESIANS 6:4: 

Fathers, do not exasperate your children but bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord. (NIV)

Definition of exasperate: Irritate and frustrated someone intensely 

TITUS 2:2-7-8

In everything, set them an example by doing what is good. In your teaching show integrity, seriousness, and soundness of speech that cannot be condemned, so that those who oppose you may be ashamed because they have nothing bad to say about us. (NIV)

Challenge: Practice validating, in both the easy ways and the challenging ways. Be intentional about keeping conflict at bay when you can, by validating.
