When you do something important, it is valuable to start with the end in mind. When we think about the end of something, it helps us make wise decisions to get us to the end place. This is also true with parenting. Although you hold a little one in your arms now, and the days can feel long, the years will be short. What might God’s dreams be for you and your baby? How can you be an intentional parent in everyday moments?

God has called us to this role of being a parent. We are His ambassadors. Our children will form their picture of God through their interaction with us as they grow.
