They are watching and listening… — 14 Comments

  1. This is so true! Adults are dealing with a serious situation that we don’t know exactly how to navigate. It’s easy to get so absorbed in our own anxiety that we forget children are absorbing it too. Fear of the unknown is often greater than fear of reality. Thank you for these great suggestions!

    • Thank you Crystal. Yes, adults have so much to think about and try to navigate. Children are going through new experiences, too. We need to help children get through these difficult times. Have a blessed day!

  2. This is a great reminder. You are right: they are ALWAYS watching and listening. Let’s model Jesus for all.

  3. What a good reminder that our children and grandchildren are listening and watching. What they pick up will either reassure them or distress them. So we must be mindful of what we are conveying and act in ways that are comforting and calming.

  4. Great message, Melissa. Sometimes we forget how things affect children even if they are not expressing it. While we hope to shield their young hearts and minds from these evils, realizing the routines help them feel loved and secure.

  5. These insights are much needed today. I’m glad you posted this. And children aren’t the only ones watching how Christians respond. We really need to think through our actions in light of how we believe Jesus would handle the situation.
