Thanks to Kelly over at Generation Cedar for the heads up on this great article from John Piper over at Desiring God. We are striving for this in our own family and as usual John Piper and his wife Noel have given us some good food for thought about family worship. Please go here to read the entire article,

The Family: Together in God's presence

On my side bar you will see this button
On this site every Monday there is a prayer posted for that week. Now I pray different things for my children every day.....and I lift up one child specifically each day....since I have 7 children it works great for me. But I have been using this blog to help me pray scripture over my children for the last month and it has changed me and my children. I am keeping these prayers and the answers to them in a journal I made.....I posted about it on my scrappy blog here
I encourage you to visit this site. The new prayer begins on Mondays.....so you can start today!

Blessings!

Watch this short film clip here.....then read this shepherd press blog post here ...
Lots to ponder and our family will be discussing this during devotions this week ....

Also this video on the supremacy of Christ by Voddie Bauchman.....well worth your time...

Ann over at Holy Experience has a very insightful post up today...

“Because when Melchizedek met Abraham, Levi was still in the body of his ancestor,” reads Hebrews 7:10.

The New Living Translation offers,“For although Levi wasn’t born yet, the seed from which he came was in Abraham’s body...”

Inside the frames, the bodies, the souls of our children, reside the children still to come. And the children then still to come.

Like nestled dolls, future generations dwell within the child whose eyes I now look into, whose hands I now touch.

Every day we parent not one child, or even a few children, but every day we parent innumerable, countless children. When I raise my voice, frustrated with a child, I speak to generations of children. When I wipe away a tear, comfort, listen, I honor centuries of children.

When we meet our children, children we will not live to meet on this earth, are, in very real ways, met, shaped, formed. Parented.
