Don't Give Up

Parents, I want to encourage you to not give up if you have a child struggling with his/her studies or just in life period. If your child is challenged developmentally, behaviorally, or even intellectually, have faith and keep a positive attitude. Things change, and most importantly, God can change anything, even suddenly. Teach your child to call upon the Lord, as you pray yourself over you and your child. Be sure to provide a non toxic, nurturing and nourishing environment for your child to grow and flourish in. Don't speak or receive negative words over your precious child. Encourage your child to speak and live positively too. Be your child's greatest support, disciplinary and teacher. Don't take the easy way out, by letting social media, culture, peers, trends and television guide your child(ren). God has entrusted you with this heritage from Him (Psalm 127:3). He knows you get weary sometimes; that's why He said, come to Him (Matthew 11:28). Whatever you struggle with as a parent, come to Him. Put it all in His hands and believe. Your child is no mistake; so make no mistake about your being a parent. Dad/Mom, you got this! Through the good and bad, ups and downs, hard and easy days, place your faith in God and put your best foot forward!
