A parent's words










"I hope Gerald doesn't get married when he grows up. I am so afraid he will change,"Cynthia confessed her fears.


Whether or not we like it, parents have enormous power for good or bad, especially with our words. By frequently speaking words of discouragement, we tear down a child's self-confidence.


Although the rudder of a ship is small, by controlling it, the ship's captain guides the direction of the entire ship. This holds true for our lives personally and for our parenting. A parent's words can help guide our child. I always try to guide ACE with my words and plant seeds of greatness in his life.
