ACCOUNTABLE TO GOD
God gave you children, and you are expected to raise them for His glory. You are a steward of God's children and, as a steward, you must answer to your Master for your efforts. Fortunately, you don't have to account to other masters, other stewards, or to those under your care. Ultimately, only God has the authority to judge your work.
That's great news! You don't have to answer to other parents or the culture you live in. The competition is over! You are not required to conform to the world's view of success because the world is not your master. And, when your kids are upset with you for restricting or disciplining them, you can take comfort that their approval is not your goal.
That doesn't mean you have carte blanche to treat your kids any way you want; your Master has provided instructions about your relationships with your kids (see Eph 6:4), but it does mean that you should be seeking to please Him first. Be a faithful and sensible steward of your kids.

About this Plan
The purpose of this devotional is to see what God's Word has to say about the parenting challenges every parent faces. Each day includes a passage of Scripture and an application of that passage to the trials and triumphs of leading families to maturity in Christ. The devotionals are created by Parenting by Design, a Fort Worth ministry devoted to teaching parents to lead their children the way God lead His children.
