Train Up a Child

Proverbs 22:6 says, "Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it." That's a promise, right? No, actually, the emphasis of the verse is on the child, not the path. Train up a child and move them toward their giftedness and strengths. That is challenging enough, but imagine becoming a foster parent or stepparent. Where do you start? Study the child. Talk to their parent. Pray for insight to help them be who God has designed them to be.
