Planting a Seed of Faith.

 This is a hard topic for me personally.  I have two girls from a previous marriage.  They are great kids, We love them dearly.  Amy and I would do anything for them.  I feel like I have failed them as not only a father, but spiritually as well.  Their mother isn't a believer in Christ Jesus or God the Father.  She is a worshiper of Pagan practices including witchcraft.  I never took them to church in their youth.  That was a huge mistake and ultimately a failure on my part.  Logan has started practicing the same beliefs as her mother.  Madison is more agnostic about things.  I should have done more for them.  I fear for them.  In no way do I want to see them suffer for all eternity in a lake of fire.  I try to talk to them about these things in small doses, and not forcefully as to drive them away.  Trying to plant that seed in them.  I pray to God Daily asking for His help in this situation.  He has chosen so far to remain silent or maybe I'm just not tuned to the right channel to hear him at the moment.  Amy sees me trying and yet I feel like I am making no progress.  She says that you have to keep trying to plant that seed of Faith and Belief in them.  I then asked her  "How do plant a seed in dry ground as hard as clay?"  She then said something so simple and special, "You have to keep asking God to soften their hearts so that the seed can be planted and grow in them."  Amy is 1000% right.  You can't give up on anyone.  You must keep fighting for those people no matter what.  Even though you may not have a relationship with God right now doesn't mean it's too late.  I have Faith in my Lord and Savior that he will continue working in my girls hearts and one day that seed will grow into something amazing.  The enemy wants nothing more from you than to turn away from God by offering alternatives.  You are being deceived, and it will cost you everything in the end.  Keep your Faith in God, Praise Him, Pray to Him about everything, Keep planting those seeds in all you encounter.
