Friday love...


Yikes. This is my Tia child. Being a mom to 3 girls is awesome. But also awe inspiring. From the bottom of my heart i just want the best for them. But to achieve this end goal, i do believe in tough love. Like telling this beauty over and again that waiting for the right guy will be so much more worth than just kissing boys left and right. Explaining to her again and again that her worth comes from within, that it's priceless and that no boy should be able to alter, add to or subtract from that. Ingraining in her heart that she is loved, beautiful and precious... I pray for this girl to have a wise heart. A knowing heart. A heart that seeks hard after God. and I pray for this mother's heart. Because this mom's heart is so easily broken.

love and a kiss

Wanting my girls to wait, not give their hearts away, is so important to me (and scary!). I look at how in my husband I have a better man than I ever dreamed I could find, and I want that for them too. And I want them to know that they don't have to "find him" on their own - that they can trust God to bring love into their lives. Thanks for sharing this!

She is so beautiful and hopefully she will learn to trust God with all her heart. I think the most difficult part for parents who love God with all their hearts is how we have to surrender to Him and watch our kids become who He has created them to be. Hopefully our love, goodness, wisdom and guidance will influence them at least a tiny bit. But I also know God has placed them in our lives to help them when they stumble and fall too. I'm fearful at times and see that God is teaching me through their struggles too. Thank goodness we can pray! I need Him everyday.

She is very pretty.
Dra haar op na die Here en Hy sal haar in sy beskermende Hand hou. Bid elke dag. Myne is nou 16 en 14 en ek glo dis net gebed wat hulle op die "staight en narrow" hou. sterkte met die hormone ook

I couldn't agree more, Wilna! I came acroos the neatest quoe this summer along these same lines...A girl needs to be so lost in God,a guy needs to seek Him to find her...with that as a young woman's motto, she will never go wrong! Keep encouraging her! Blessings!
