Nomads For Christ     

Becoming a parent is an exciting and joyous thing. . . it is also a scary thing. The realization that we are bringing another human being into the world bears an enormous responsibility. Sarah and I have been discussing our philosophy of parenting. What I think both of us realize is that it is easier to talk about and will be harder to do, but at least we are talking and planning. I mean let’s face it, we will most assuredly mess up somewhere along the way. We desire to do much to raise our children in the fear and admonition of the Lord, and we want to provide a loving environment for our kids, but I know that we will make mistakes (and we will do somethings right too). We are thankful that we have many lessons that we have gleaned from our own parents that will help us parent our children. It is hard to believe that in only 2 short months, we will have our first born. When I hold that little one in my arms and look into her (?) eyes, it will be . . . wow! There is so much I want to do, I can hardly wait! Please keep us in prayer that the delivery goes well and that we will be good parents to this new little life, this image bearer of the King.
