Parenting by Design Daily DevotionalSample
GOD'S GYM
How many of us spend a considerable amount of time at the gym getting in shape for who knows what? We can be so disciplined in exercise and diet that we are the envy of our peers. And while this kind of training has value, it is short-lived. Take a month off and see what happens!
What if we were just as disciplined in our daily time with God? Many people spend an hour or two a day exercising, but rarely spend 15 minutes a day with God. What if we spent more time in God's gym? Paul tells us the answer — training for godliness "has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come." That's the kind of training a whole family can enjoy together, and that will last forever.
Get your family into God's gym, and train for eternity.

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.
