God entrusted our children into our hands as one of the best works for which we answer to Him. He gave us the stewardship of shaping, investing in, and inspiring for His glory these little human beings entrusted into our hands by His love and design.

Because I had committed my whole life to Christ, one way for me to worship God was to serve these precious human beings He entrusted into my hands. God ordained family and home to have eternal value as the place our children are shaped in the transcendent image of God, through our homes.

It is as we exercise our spiritual, mental, virtuous muscles that we grow stronger as whole people. It is from our own personal growth that our children, friends, and others feed.

This is our most lasting legacy. Even as Jesus served us through His sacrificial life, so we model his love through our sacrificial life.
