Current favorite children’s books! 📖🌈

Ugh I love these. I believe it’s so important to instill confidence in God and his intentions EARLY on in childhood to prepare for puberty!

The enemy attacks our children’s minds in their most vulnerable times. Sleep, puberty, and situations. Let them know:

-they are wonderfully and fearfully made (Psalm 139:14)

-we are all created in Gods image (Genesis 1:27)

-we were created in Christ to do good works and with intention (Ephesians 2:10)

-and that God loves each and every single one of us with a passion so deep, he gave his only pure & innocent son to die for us! (John 3:16)

Our duty as parents is to help our children find, and put on the armor of God! 🌈✨📖

Your discipleship starts in your home! 🏠 ✝️
