I was speaking to one of my teenage daughters the other day who was telling me about a conflict she was having with her step mom. It comes to naturally to resist, to defend, decry and protest.
It’s times like that I have to set aside my “mama bear” instincts and put my kids well being first. I suggested my daughter respond to the conflict with kindness and generosity (I would help her with the latter).
I think it is a little funny we were having that conversation so close to #PalmSunday . People thought Jesus was going to strong arm His kingdom come - but that isn’t how God works. Those who live by the sword, die by the sword.
I’m not very good at it, but I’m learning self control, to do the right thing even when it makes me feel powerless - to love our neighbors, even when the neighbor isn’t acting lovely. #kidscomefirst #momlife
In other news, my literal neighbor brought over some gluten free chocolate cookies last night that are so good I can’t even tell they are gluten free! 🥰
