Episode 1: Parenting Is a Calling — Encouragement for the Journey
By Dr. Muthoni Omukhango | CLC Kenya
Parenting Is a Divine Assignment
Parenting is not just a season—it is a sacred mission. As we rise each morning to feed, teach, guide, correct, pray, and love on our children, we must remember this profound truth: parenting is a divine assignment.
God, in His perfect wisdom, didn’t randomly place your child in your life. He chose you. He saw your heart, your imperfections, your hidden strengths, and your potential, and He said, “This one will do.”
So whether today brings sunshine or storms… whether your children are dancing joyfully through the living room or throwing their biggest tantrums yet, take heart. You are not failing—you are walking through a holy calling.
Grace for the Highs and Lows
There will be laughter—those sweet moments when your child’s smile feels like heaven’s hug.
There will also be tears—those long nights when you’re unsure if you’re doing enough, or doing it right.
But through it all, God’s grace is sufficient.
“Let us not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”
(Galatians 6:9)
This is our reminder: There is a harvest ahead.
One day, your child will rise up with character, faith, and purpose—and part of their testimony will be that you stayed the course. That you prayed. That you didn’t give up.
So don’t grow weary. Don’t give up. Heaven sees you. And Heaven backs you up.
