Lisa: I love the picture that God knows us better than even we know our children. God knows our children better than we know them. For those of you who have kids, you can identify with this. When you are in the hospital, and your child has been born, and you go view through that nursery window, and peer through, and all those little beds are lined up and they have the name plate on there, you know which one is yours, but let's face it, they all have the same cone shaped head. They pretty much have that Mohawk thing working, if they have hair, and the color. They look a lot alike. So what would happen if you took away those name plates, would you really know which one, and they mixed the babies up. This really hit home with us with our twins. Our twins are fraternal, but when they were first born they looked so much alike. They had on the wrist bracelet and the ankle bracelet on them. Before we left the hospital, Ed and I were like, you know you might want to leave that ankle bracelet on just so we would know which one was which. One of them was on medication, so we definitely needed to know which one was which. We knew which one was which. But God knows even better than we do. God says he knows the number of hairs on our head and our kids' head and that is changing daily, that number. But he knows it when it changes. He knows it. I think if he knows us and our children that well, then how much better are his dreams for us and for our children, than our dreams? Again, my world of dreaming for my children is limited, but God's is unlimited.

Ed: I believe, Lisa, when parents grasp that fact that God is so intentional and so specific, his plans are so awesome and they begin to do the work it takes to weave their dreams into God's, then they will understand, I believe, what parenting is all about and what it means to live in concert with God's will.

Lisa: Ed Young Jr says that I think the first step though is understanding that even though I know my dream is good, it pales in comparison to God's. Then to say okay, what exactly is God's dream for my child or for my life. And that is where Jeremiah comes into play.
