30 Ways a Mother can Bless her Children

30 Ways a Mother Can Bless Her Children by John TrentJohn Trent has written a series of four books on how to bless others. This book is entitled 30 Ways a Mother Can Bless Her Children. Trent is insightful and relates how his own mother blessed him and his brothers. He shares: If you were not blessed as a child, remember you can reverse the curse. You can learn what it means to bless others. Every mother has the choice set before her to choose life over death; to step toward or just step away. Jesus said in John 10:10 I have come that you might have life and have it abundantly. John Trent share many ideas his wife Kari uses to bless their daughters. A mother can create a culture blessing in her home.
 
Trent lists five Essential Elements: 

  • Meaningful Touch 
  • Spoken Message 
  • High Value 
  • Special Future 
  • Active Commitment 
Trent suggests paying attention to your childs strengths. Every person is gifted uniquely. He presents a simple chart to help decipher your childs gift. Make an active commitment from the heart to see that blessings come to pass in the child's life. Words accompanied by actions lived out. Mothers be intentional about connecting point and blessing your child today. Many of the 30 blessings in Trents book I have used raising my own children and grandsons. The Blessing Bags for the homeless teach children to recognize the homeless. The Selfie Blessing seems doable with all the photos so easily uploaded to social media. Wonderful ideas to record special times together like in Mommy Date night. Throw and Catch Blessing was a unique way to foster conversation. Many simple expressions of love from a post it note, to a special plate, to special display encourage children and let them know that they are important. Rose Publishing gave me this pdf for an honest review.
