    Our job as parents and grandparents is to create a desire in our kids for the things of God.

    based on 104 ratings
     | 20,394 views

    Gideon’s asking for a sign has nothing to do with determining God’s will—God already clearly told Gideon what to do. Gideon’s fleece shows his doubt and fear and lack of trust. Gideon didn’t know his own strength.
