Hi, friend. I'm so grateful you've joined me on the Jesus Over Everything show. If you haven't heard the news, we have gone retro this summer. For the months of June and July, we are featuring our five word prayers daily. The show, this show started as, and so many of you love so much, five-minute podcast shows on topics of all kinds, the short inspiration you need for every day of the week.

So enjoy these shows, keep listening all summer, and see you right here back in August for a

powerful season six.

Hi, and welcome to the Five Word Prayers Daily, a five-day-a-week daily devotional where we share

the word, prayers prayers in our heart.

I'm Lisa Whittle, and I welcome you to just five minutes with me, which I trust and pray will be

five minutes well spent. Yay, November. I love November. It's my birth month and a crisp fall month,

my favorite season, by the way. What do you think of November? Already started thinking

about the holidays. I bet you have, but let's not stress about that this year, okay? I want to spend

our month dedicated to a topic that is one of my most requested topics to talk about. It's also

one of my most favorite, by the way. It is parenting. Most of you know my husband and I have

raised and are currently still raising three kids ages 2018 and 16. Yes, you still raise a 20 year old.

And yes, we're in that stage where we now raise young adults and still a couple of teens.

It's a different thing altogether, I can tell you. But I told someone the other day,

the past five years, including right now, are my favorite of my entire life. It's totally true.

I didn't say my easiest because honestly, they've been some of the more challenging in some

ways. But when it comes to parenting, as with most everything, I think, when you do the hard

work from the start and you stay with God throughout the process, you do get to enjoy the fruit of that in the end.

Life isn't perfect in our house far, far from it, but it's fun and sometimes hard and good.

So all months, I'm going to talk parenting, and this week will kick off that series with this

theme, What to Do When. Stick around for today's What to Do When in just a minute.

I had a listener on IG message me and say this, please tell me the repeating of instructions
