Children Grow Up Faster Than You Think
Day 257 of 365 • FAMILY
“The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom, and whatever you get, get insight.”
— Proverbs 4:7 (ESV)
Proverb Truth
If I could give one piece of advice to younger fathers, it might simply be this: Slow down. Because childhood doesn’t last nearly as long as you think.
One day you’re teaching them to ride a bike. The next day they’re driving away.
Looking back, I don’t remember most of the meetings. I remember the moments. Ballgames. Vacations. Conversations. Laughter.
Love is spelled T-I-M-E.
Jesus in Action
Jesus welcomed children with open arms and reminded His disciples that heaven itself values childlike faith.
Forged Wisdom
Seneca wrote: “Nothing is ours, except time.” Time may be the greatest gift we ever give.
The No Limits Challenge
Be intentional with your time today. Someone you love is growing up.
Prayer
Father, help me treasure the seasons You’ve entrusted to me. Teach me not to rush through the moments that will someday become my sweetest memories. Amen.
