“Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other.” EPH 4.31-32
My dear brides,
For a long time, I didn’t understand my younger son’s behaviour. His outbursts of anger, his stubbornness, his way of doing things on his own...All of it troubled me deeply. But my Beloved, my Heavenly Father, taught me another way: The way of a gentle and quiet spirit, the way that wins without a word. The way that leaves the Father to touch hearts. So, when he went to a friend’s birthday party during the week, I didn’t react out of fear, I didn’t try to control him. I left him in his Heavenly Father's hands.
And this morning… oh, this morning, my son himself called me, not to ask for permission, but to inform me with respect: “Mom, I’m going to school. I just wanted to let you know.” It wasn’t by my strength that this happened, but through the gentleness of the One who transforms.
Isn’t it wonderful, dear brides, when it’s our Heavenly Father who changes hearts?
Connecting to the HomeGrown ministry is the most wonderful thing I can experience again, because I no longer focus on the events, but on loving the Heavenly Father who takes care of my children.
Thank you, Kateleen, for reminding me that my children have a Heavenly Father who loves them and knows them better than I do. He imagined them, dreamed them, thought them through, and created them.
I am sometimes still too controlling with them, but I know that God is working within me.
Yes, my Beloved, thank you for taking care of your children. Sometimes I am overwhelmed or saddened by their behavior, but I know that through these trials you want to meet them and have a special relationship with them.
Thank you for helping me understand my role as a mother. Grant me this gentle and peaceful spirit with them as well. And come and touch their hearts.

Merci Kateleen de me rappeler que mes enfants ont un Père Céleste qui les aime et les connaît mieux que moi-même. Il les a imaginé, rêvé, pensé et créée.
Je suis parfois encore trop « contrôlante » avec eux mais je sais que Dieu est en train de travailler en moi.
Oui mon Bien-Aimé, merci de prendre de soin de tes enfants. Parfois je suis dépassée ou triste par leur comportement mais je sais qu’au travers de ces épreuves tu veux les rencontrer et avoir une relation privilégiée avec eux.
Merci de m’aider à comprendre mon rôle de maman. Donne-moi cet esprit doux et paisible avec eux également. Et viens toucher leur cœur.
me siento tan contenta tener a mi Amado celestial y mirarlo con un esposo porque su Amor lo cubre todo El también me anima día a día y me recuerda yo soy el padre de tus hijos ellos están bien en mis manos yo tengo el control cuánto le agradezco su perdón conmigo y escucharme cuando clamo a El en cuestión a mis hijos y le agradezco tanto lo que está haciendo en tu bella kateleen-joseph Nuestro Amado es Nuestro Dios SOBERANO
