Sometimes in your family it seems likes having peaceful communication is just not possible. From children that want their way to parents that don’t take time to hear their children out, often times peace is not evident in much of the communication in a home.
As parents we long to have peace in our homes, but we struggle to figure out why it’s missing or how to keep it growing. While it is possible to have peace in our homes, it will require a lot of work, consistency and the realization that there will be times that it will be missing due to our human nature and our kids’ as well.
Over the last few months I’ve been writing about Peaceful Parenting over at Worshipful Living and today I’m sharing tips and ideas for cultivating peaceful communication in your home. I hope you’ll join me over there and that you are encouraged and blessed!
A soft answer turns away anger says the Bible. Keep your words sweet and learn to listen too.
Thanks for sharing at Tell me a Story.
Amen! Blessings Hazel!
Communication in families definitely has it’s hard moments. Make the most of the good and the least of the worst. Too often we do this backwards.
Yes, that is so true! We must ensure that we don’t focus only on the worst. Blessings Ginger!
