Message: Blessing Your Child
Series: Building Fireproof Relationships
Pastor Larry Shantz speaking
May 9/10, 2009
No matter what our age it is very important for us to know that we are loved and accepted for who we are. The approval of our parents/caregivers affects how we view ourselves and our ability to pass this on to our children, spouse, friends and family. If not received as a child, many people spend a lifetime longing for this acceptance. When it comes to our children, acceptance, however, is much deeper than just instilling self-esteem—it is instilling what the Bible calls, “the blessing” into the lives of our children.
