Sour Cream And 7-up Biscuits

Tolerance and passivity define today’s approach to parenting. Restraint and correction are deemed too confining for the child’s psyche. Self-esteem has superseded self-control. Parents are afraid to correct wrong behavior. They are urged by experts to let their children express themselves freely. Too many parents are utterly absent from their own children’s sphere of moral influence. The child’s nature is simply permitted to take its course, and by the time the parent realizes the utter depravity of the child’s heart, things are already on a course for calamity.

INSTRUCTIONS

Mix the sour cream into the biscuit mix, using a pastry blender or two
table knives, until mixture is crumbly. Add 7-Up all at once, stir
quickly with a large fork. Turn out onto lightly floured board and
quickly knead 6-8 times. Don't overmix or biscuits will be tough. Pat
into a square and cut into about 18 equal pieces using a knife dipped
in flour. Can also use a  2 to 3 inch biscuit cutter. Preheat oven to

Perhaps most of all, our children need to hear that we love them. And why do we love them? Simply because they are our children. Period! They do not earn our love, nor can they lose our love regardless of what they do. This is modeling the divine love of God. Why does He love us? Because He chooses to do so. The love is unconditional and not based on our performance. And the Bible says the only reason we love Him is because He first loves us (1 Jn. 4:19). And how did He show that loved? Through His own sacrifice. “In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins” (1 John 4:10). Children can easily see where your priorities are and where your love is directed.
