This is getting into the weird Isaiah stuff I don’t
understand. What I do understand was this: I completely understand Isaiah’s
feelings of unworthiness before the Lord, and the glory of his redemption. I
also understand that he chose to be the messenger; that God always allows us our
agency and never forces anyone to serve Him. He is asking now, who will go—and
every day I have to make the choice whether or not it will be me. I’m grateful
for the choice, and I love Him for allowing me to make, even though I choose
wrong so often.
How does that apply to my parenting? How can I allow them to
exercise their agency, while still teaching them? How do I lovingly and fairly
apply or allow consequences? I have so many questions! That’s something to pray
about.
