Trusting God Through the Journey of Parenting | Isaiah 12:2

Isaiah 12:2 says, “Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and will not be afraid; for the Lord God is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation.”**

This verse beautifully encapsulates the blessing of being a Christian parent. We serve a God who is unconditionally faithful, strong, and mighty. He has secured the ultimate victory for us, making Him worthy of all our trust, admiration, worship, and praise. Because of Him, we can navigate the challenges of parenting with a light heart and without fear, knowing we have an ever-present source of strength and joy.

Our salvation is secure, and our hope is founded on truth and love. This should fill us with joy as parents, knowing that no matter how tough things may get, we can rely on our good God to walk with us and bring us through to the other side. We can face each day with joy in our hearts and peace in our minds, confident in His love and care.

It’s easy to become overwhelmed by the demands of the day or by particularly challenging seasons in life. But as Christians, it’s vital that we model for our children how faith transforms our lives. Even in the hardest times, we can show them that peace and joy are possible when we trust in God. Our role as parents includes the beautiful responsibility of instilling in our children a deep sense of trust and confidence in their Heavenly Father. By doing so, we teach them that no matter what they face, they can rely on God to care for them.
