Do you treat your children the way you treat yourself?

At times we can be our own worst critics. The way we condemn and belittle ourselves can create a vicious cycle of self condemnation. Do you believe what God says is true about you? How are you able to encourage your children when you don’t encourage yourself? The sad reality is hurt people hurt other people.

It starts with you. Believe what God says is true about you. As you realize His love for you, then you can be a source of inspiration and encouragement for your children.

Fathers, do not exasperate your children, so that they will not lose heart. (Colossians 3:21)
