Obedience Is a Choice

"Obedience is an important part of our relationship with our children; it’s not the most important quality. Without the freedom to reject God, we are powerless to choose Him. Obedience is a choice. To fear our children’s poor choices is to teach them to be afraid of freedom. Honor brings power to relationships and the individuals in those relationships. In order to cast out anxiety in our children, we must first cast it out in ourselves. Loving on purpose means that we learn to let perfect love cast out our fear, let perfect love bring out the best in us, and make perfect love the bottom line in our homes, as it is in Heaven." ~ Danny Lee Silk
