Parent Personal Statement

328 Words1 Page

When I became a parent in 2011 my priority for my child's spiritual growth was at the top of my list. I continue to strive for my relationship with God to flourish and to be an example of what it means to have a relationship with God for my son to see. I try to make it a daily task, when possible; that we bless our food before meals, worship together by listening to gospel music and singing along, talk about God, read the bible together, read devotionals together, and pray before bed together. I understand that parents are children’s first teachers and that makes me want to be better in my walk with God because I know parenting is the ministry that God has for me at this time.

If they see me finishing school and working a good job that’s what they will expect to do themselves because that is all that they know. Children are like sponges. I want to show my kids how to be a good person by being a good person myself. As a parent I want my children to know that they can be anything they want to be, but at the same time I am controlling their physical and moral environment so that they can be good people.
