And, everyone that drove by the house....looked on the outside...thought, “That must be a nice house on the inside too.” Well, just because a house looks so nice on the outside, doesn’t mean it’s so nice on the inside.
The house in this story wasn’t so nice on the inside. See, the dad and the mom didn’t know about all the blocks they were suppose to give their little girl. For some reason the dad and the mom didn’t understand God’s ways and God’s heart toward being responsible to give their children building blocks so that they would grow and mature and have a life that didn’t hurt quite so much.
See when dads and moms don’t give their little girls the right kind of blocks they often start to grow up feeling different, not so special, not good enough, not pretty enough and then not protected enough in the right ways. Those blocks from dad gives a girl good tools to help her make good decisions and good friends.
And, when these little girls don’t get all their blocks they don’t always know in their heart and their head that God loves them. They don’t know that He says they are made in His Image, made for Relationship, are very special and have a unique purpose—so they wear masks instead.
Sometimes those little girls make choices that aren’t such good ones and those choices hurt for a very long time and even leave scars in their heart.
Sometimes those little girls make choices that aren’t very good ones and those choices hurt for a very long time and even leave scars in their heart . . .and…..they grow up with wrong ideas about men, marriage, God, how to do life and relationships…..and then they feel hurt on the inside.

Very nice post! I have 2 little girls now and we are trying to give them the right "blocks" to build the solid foundation. It is silly that I had tears while I was reading (I am pregnant though). Being one of the little girls who didn't get the right blocks, all grown up, it is hard to know what girls need! Luckily God had blessed me and my girls with a hubby and father who just seems to innately know! What proves he is so awesome is that he gives the credit to God!
Oh sorry it got so long!
Thank you!
Hi Julie, thanks for visiting and for the encouraing words. I'm touched that this subject ministered to you. I think, you are right, that when a woman is grown up, it can be hard to know what "blocks" her daughters need, because it's difficult to give out what she didn't have. . . and yet, there is God who does lead and give and pour out mercy and love. Oh, not a long post...i love to read the hearts of the women who comment. Thanks! Lylah
