God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Parents, like it or not, you are an example for your children for good or for bad. Your children may have other examples, but would they say you are their primary “example” (Phil. 3:17) in their lives? Or what about the other word Paul uses in verse 17 – “pattern” ( Tupos )? Here’s the Lexical illustration for that word in the original language: “Taking a stone out of the ground leaves a hole that bears the contours of the stone, but in effect the stone has made the impression.” Parents, your children will follow an impression set for them. Are you the one setting the positive impression, that mold that they can fit into? We may differ with giftedness, but every Christian has the potential to live a godly life and be an example and pattern for their child. Who are your child’s heroes? Are they spiritual? Do you make the list?

tender. Remove from heat. Transfer barley to a cookie sheet. Spread barley
out to cool briefly. While barley is cooking, combine next 7 ingredients in
a salad bowl. Cover and refrigerate until barley is cooled. Combine
remaining ingredients, except lettuce, in a jar with a tight fitting lid.
Shake vigorously until emulsified. Set aside. Transfer cooled barley to
bean and vegetable mixture. Toss. Add dressing and season with salt and
pepper to taste. Toss again. Serve on a bed of lettuce.
