Isn't it amazing how living a Godly life is liberating in areas we think it wouldn't be? Did you ever expect when you became a Christian that one day it would be the root of an enjoyable season of parenthood? youthwife.... I'm the kid from the fishbowl. It was miserable. Getting grace from those in your Church is somewhat your responsibility. I'm convinced that most folks attending church "don't get it" and that it's up to the pastor's family to remind them that you are a normal family just like they are. The fight on the way to church they just had, may have just taken place in your car as well. As a grown PK, I'm constantly reminding my peers in church that they must pray for the pastor's family and to extend them grace. Cash is nice too :) but mostly grace. Welcome to Freedom!
