“It's in these moments when our children push us to the brink that we see how desperately we need the work of the Holy Spirit in us. It is only through Him that we can find real peace-the kind that allows us to be peacemakers when our children are anything but peaceful. Parenting as peacemakers helps our children learn how to problem-solve, how to reconcile, and how to restore relationship.
But we can model this only by cultivating peace within our own hearts first, leaning into the power of the Holy Spirit and hiding ourselves in the safe harbor of Jesus' peace.”
