Is your family finding a new routine? As our girls get older, it seems the amount of appointments, practices, and rehearsals on the calendar increase ten-fold.

As you coordinate the family calendar, remember this: you have the choice to make time for God, or make God the center of your time. The ways you consistently integrate meaningful time with God in your family’s everyday routine will guide your daughter to prioritize time with God herself.

Matthew’s gospel instructs us to first seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness. Ask your daughter to find one thing in your family routine that is hindering time spent with God. Work together to find a solution and live it out in your new routine.
