Proverbs

This morning as I was finishing up my time reading my Bible reading sweet H curled up next to me get an early morning snuggle. He asked what I was reading and I said Proverbs. I asked if he wanted to read it with me and he said yes. So I read verse one of chapter 18 and then he read verse two; back and forth until we completed the whole chapter. It was a sweet time of reading with my little man. But more so it amazed me that not only are these verses so applicable to me, many he was able to grasp the full concept of the verse and therefor the application! We would stop occasionally, and I asked him some questions, especially about verses that I knew would encourage him or that related to an area he needs to grow in.

This moment with H caused me to pause, and ask myself some questions... why haven't I done sat with H and read Proverbs with him daily? Why don't I go to God's Word first when there is a heart issue in his life that needs to be addressed? Why am I so blessed to be the Mama of this amazing little man that desires to know God's Word? How can I be the best mama for him and fully encourage him to seek God daily?

Proverbs 18:15
"The heart of the discerning acquires knowledge; the ears of the wise seek it out."

2 Timothy 3:16-17
"All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."
