There are three stages to parenting that every parent should be aware of. As you enter each stage, your goals and direction will shift accordingly. These stages build on each other. It will be easier to be successful in one of the latter stages if you have done the first ones correctly.
Changing bad behavior can be done. When you understand how behavior is determined in the mind and heart, then you can deal with it and change it.
The eternal nature of God cannot be expressed by mere mortals. We are bound to time, but God is not. He sees all of time, past and future, as the present.
Simply because something has become more acceptable to society as a whole doesn’t make it either right or without consequences. There are very real dangers that are associated with sex before and outside of marriage.
Are you wondering why you are so angry? It may be that you are angry more and more and you don’t even know why. There are many reasons why this might be true, but a common denominator as to why you are so angry all the time is that you just don’t understand.
Ephesians 5:22 commands the wife to submit to her husband while Ephesians 5:25 commands the husband to love his wife. But are these two separate things? Is it only the wife who is supposed to submit? I don’t think so.
Marriage, or any true relationship for that matter, is much more complicated than we figured when we first married.

The greatest problem with a bad past is not that you made mistakes or did things wrong. It is that you can’t go back and undo it. That is the most frustrating part about guilt and regrets. We are hands on people. We want to fix mistakes and right wrongs. But once the moment has slipped into the past, what’s done is done. We can’t go back and undo or even redo it. That is the problem. Since we are people of action, letting your past go is dependent on some sort of action that we can take. There is, fortunately, something we can do.

How many times have you said something that just didn’t come out the way you wanted it to? How many times have we said something that we really didn’t mean, but we were too frustrated to stop it from being said? What’s more, some people have a fear of expressing themselves at all. They’re afraid to say something that might cost them a friendship. Or they bottle everything up tight and seize up at the mere thought of sharing their true emotions. This can be conquered.
