Here is my list:
- love Jesus with all their heart
- to be kind to others (friends and strangers)
- to be a servant to others
- a hard worker
- someone who finds joy in little things
- compassionate
- someone who wants to make the world a better place
- someone who is not scared to get their hands dirty
- a cheerful heart
I looked at my list and boy did it give me a truck-full of perspective. Suddenly, this battle of Kindergarten homework didn't seem to be quite so important. My list didn't include being smart or getting good grades. From that day on, I decided as a parent to put our focus (our parenting blood, sweat, and tears) into the things that MATTER. That was the start to figuring out how to raise a servant heart in selfish world.
