“It is no abstract thing – the state of your heart is the state of your home. You cannot harbor resentment secretly toward your children and expect their hearts to be submissive and tender. You cannot be greedy with your time and expect them to share their toys. And perhaps most importantly, you cannot resist your opportunities to be corrected by God and expect them to receive correction from you.”-Rachel Jankovic, Loving the Little Years
Ouch. That one stung a bit. If this is true, my home is hurtin' right now.
If you need me, I'll be in the corner. Yikes.
