Feeling inadequate

Some days I just want to throw in the towel.  I do.  I feel inadequate to teach my children so many things that this world requires me to teach.  I don't feel like the way the world wants things to be is important.  No I don't.  I feel like what is important is teaching about Christ.  How to be like him.  That, to me, is the most important of all.  If someone goes about their life not caring about Christ, or others, to me that is the worst thing anyone could possibly do, or be.  I want my children to learn to be like Christ.  To love like him.  To be loving and kind like him.  Why isn't this the most important thing in our world today?  Why don't we teach or children to be like Christ?  Why is the worldly things so much more important in our world now days?  Christ is my life, my center.  I want my children to feel that way too.  I want my children to think, WWJD?  When they are confronted with things of this world, temptations.  

Yes, Knowledge is important.  The most important thing?  NO!  To be learned is good, but to be learned and to not KNOW the Savior?  That is the worst sin, in my eyes.  

I know that to be in this world we do need to learn and to be the best we can be.  I believe that to do so we need The Lord.  He can help us to be who we are meant to be.  To be the best we can.  To know him first then we can succeed in all we do.  Trust him then all will fall into place!  

I want my children to know this.  If they Trust God, and do His will they will be successful!  Of course we do need to do our part. Faith without works is dead.  So therefore I want to teach my children to read, to write.  To serve!  To learn all they can in this world.  But Christ comes first!!  And foremost.  

To teach my children reading, writing and arithmetic, I need the Lord!  I don't know everything.  I teach what I know and what I don't know I learn.  I am not perfect.  But I am doing my best.  I am working everyday to do better.  Some days I don't have motivation.  Some days I am ready to conquer the world. 

The Lord makes up for what I lack.  He is my rock and my Savior.  When I can't do what everyone expects of me he carries me through.  He helps me when I falter.  He lifts me when I'm down.  If I didn't have him in my life, I would have NOTHING.  He is my EVERYTHING!
