scars...

pretty powerful blog post from a dear friend in our church. great parenting advice, but just great gospel truth as well.

The Stewart Family: Redeeming All Failures

my favorite quote from the blog:
"That is what is so hard about being a parent....seeing your failures effect your own children. Stew always tells me,
'Don't worry....you will scar them....but Jesus will redeem all their scars!'"

i am not a parent, but it kills me to see my own failures affect those around me and those that i lead. most of the time i wonder why the lord has put my in a position of influence. what an encouraging word!
