Parenting Through the Ages

    A fool spurns a parent’s discipline, but whoever heeds correction shows prudence.

    --Proverbs 15:5 (NIV)

    Please Pray:

    Heavenly Father,

    Thank You for Your constant love and guidance in our lives. Help us to be patient, wise, and merciful in our roles as parents, just as You are with us. Grant us the strength to guide our children with grace, to make decisions rooted in faith, and to trust You in every season of parenting. May our homes reflect Your love and wisdom. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

      Lilka Finley Raphael

      Lilka Finley Raphael has been a licensed pharmacist for over thirty years. Still, she has learned that the most potent prescriptions are not in bottles. Prayer and persistence are far more effective than any medication dispensed. A love for writing, gardening, and photography prompted Lilka to share her experiences and life lessons on her blogs God, autism and me, B Is for Blessed, and God and the Garden. Lilka’s most recent accolades include a Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers Conference 2024 Selah Award Finalist for the Published Devotion category and recognition at the Asheville Christian Writers Conference as 2024 Sparrow Award winner. Lilka is also a monthly contributor to Edie Melson’s the Write Conversation, a Writer’s Digest top one-hundred website for writers. However, Lilka’s greatest achievements are her two adult sons who have flown the nest. Happily married for thirty-one years, she lives east of Atlanta, Georgia with her husband, Rod. They share their home with two German Shepherds—Holly and Ivy—and one naughty kitty, Moxie. Lilka's musings and photography are available at
