Outcomes of These Mistakes:
1. People have anxiety
2. Dissension and resentment
3. Everyone loses
1. Where are you in the scope of parenting? Are you a parent? Grandparent? Future parent? Are you a support of other parents by being an uncle, aunt, a cousin, friend, teacher, mentor, ect.? Take some time to jot down those specific names down.
2. keeping in mind your list from question #1, how well do you pray for each person? Take some time to pray over your entire list, and brainstorm how you might pray more consistently for everyone on your list.
3. If you are a parent who is married, how well unified are you and your spouse? What would help the unity in your marriage? What steps can you specifically take towards being more unified as a married couple?
4. What is your biggest take away from this passage of God’s Word? What did God teach you? Do you feel led to put anything into action? If so, what, and what practical step(s) do you need to take to be obedient to what God has led you to do? Who can keep you accountable to accomplishing this?
