"These Are My Emotions"
EPISODE 146
Take Responsibility for What You Can Control
What's your goal in parenting, and is it possible we've directed our attention to the wrong person's behavior? This week, we distinguish our responsibilities from our kids' responsibilities in session 7 of our Training Wheels guided study. What Jesus Said at the end of the Sermon on the Mount shows us we aren't building additions on our parents houses and we don't have the remote control on other people. We ask, "Do You Understand?" what God wants us to take from Ezekiel 18, realizing we need to keep our "eyes on the ball" and skip the blame shifting. We also share our parenting regrets, times our kids made us want to hide in embarrassment, and our prayer for parents and kids all over.
Takeaways
The Big Idea: Good parenting is a daily choice you make, not the result of your child's choices.
This Week's Challenge: Thank a parent for their work with their children.
