Hey Everyone!
This week in Kidstuf we are talking about trust within your family and using the story of Jacob and Esau to illustrate that trust. It's interesting how trust (or the lack of) can immediately change a relationship with someone. I remember a janitor named Jim that I befriended on a job I had when I was first in college. Jim taught me an important lesson that I literally recall at least once a month. Jim let his guard down one afternoon and said, "I wish everyone would just do what they tell me they're going to do." Simply put Jim couldn't trust his coworkers because their speech and actions were so far apart. Wow. What kind of trust are you building in your relationship with your kids? Does your "yes" mean "yes" and your
"no" mean "no?" It would be better to say nothing at all than to promise something that you cannot (or have no intention to) fulfill.
