In days past, we’ve covered the idea of our kids and
spiritual conflict.
Today, I’m reminded that as a parent, sometimes I find
myself caught up in dealing with the symptoms of a problem that I forget to
look for a root cause. It’s like
playing that game at Chuck E. Cheese’s with the mallet where you’re trying to
smack the moles as they come up.
As many as you hit, they just keep coming…
If it’s a medical problem, we go to the doctor. If it’s an attitude or behavior
problem, we focus on the attitude or behavior.
Today, I’m going to be asking God to show me where the root
causes are for things we deal with every day. I’m so grateful for the wisdom God gives us when we remember
to ask for it…
