We try to keep a good line of communication open with our children. It's not always about trying to just teach them every moment, but it's about listening to them and trying to understand them and gain that sense of communication so when they need to talk to someone, they know that we're there.Collection: Communication

Remember, the choices we make today shape the people we become tomorrow.
Our relationships are precious, valuable treasures from heaven, and we should handle them carefully, always looking for ways to build bridges to each other's hearts.
Even in the tough times, He's still a good God.
At the end of day, what matters most to God, what moves His heart, isn't our fancy words and impressive possessions - it's the condition of our hearts.
Choose to be kind. Choose to forgive. Let your love grow and shine so that people may look at the example of your life and glorify God in Heaven.
Let me encourage you, if someone has wronged you, and you still get that cringing feeling on the inside when you see or think about that person, take it to God and allow Him to keep your heart soft and sensitive.
Children touch all of our lives. We all have the opportunity to sow seeds into the next generation, and there's nothing more important that we can leave on this earth than a legacy of faith, hope, and confidence in our God.
Do good 'cause God wants you to be happy. When you come to church, when you worship Him, you're not doing it for God, really. You're doing it for yourself because that's what makes God happy.
Bitterness and unforgiveness block the flow of God's blessing in your life and actually hinder your prayers.
God has given us all wonderful unique gifts and talents to use to glorify and celebrate Him.
You need to love your life; you have to appreciate yourself.
When we obey God, we're not doing it for God... we're doing it for ourself. Because God takes pleasure when we're happy.
Sometimes God presents opportunities that look insignificant or rather ordinary. Perhaps you don't see how they fit into the big picture for your life. But if God is asking you to do something, He has a purpose for it.
God's not complicated - He's really not. And He helps people in their everyday life so that they can get better in relationships, in their job situations, in getting through grief.
You have to make time and tend to things that are important in your life so you can live the life of blessing God has promised you!
I try to listen to my children. I try to change with my children.
Well, I - you know, the scripture says that God works by faith. And you have to have faith. You have to have trust in God so that God can work.
As women, we're nurturers by nature. We want to make sure everyone is happy. That's a good thing, but we also have to put ourselves on that happiness list.
Our life ripples out, and it has influence. That's why it's important that we're at our best and that we're influencing others for the good.
A lot of times we see choices in front of us, and we limit ourselves by what we see. God wants us to see His way of doing things. And His way is always greater than our ways.
There are a lot of times that we feel like our hands are tied - 'I have no control over if I'm going to lose my job.' 'I have no control over if I'm going to be able to pay my bills.' You've got to realize that that's where your trust comes in. You have to trust God, and keep your hope, because your hope is what produces your faith.
I believe that God wants us to show respect.
I think money helps us. It helps us. It's our - it's our exchange system. But it does not buy you happiness. It doesn't buy you health.
I have fabulous children.
I spend my money like I don't have anything.
I'd love my children no matter what.
Well, you can't argue with somebody that won't argue back.
I don't question God.
In fact, we have a choice of freedom of heart to follow God.
When you use your faith, it gives you energy. It gives you the ability to be able to see beyond where you are right now and see into the future.
I know when I get down and discouraged, it's hard for me to be able to just see anything except for right where I am.
You know what, my faith is like this - when I die, I'm going to live with God forever and ever. But I believe He wants us to have a good life here on Earth.
Well, you know, I just - I believe marriage should between a man and a woman.
One thing is certain: our families are important. Don't get so stressed out and so preoccupied that we neglect one of the greatest things that God has given us, and that's our families.
I've learned in my life that things change. Seasons changes, times change. We take different jobs. Our children grow. So, we have to study the people in our lives and adapt to them, because when we do that, we get more out of our relationships.
