Summary
Contemplating the hearts of my own children and seeking to teach them about the grace of God, I realize my love and service to them must come before any of my great words, my teaching and training. My time, my attention, my "soft-tickling"--even when I am tired or have other "important" things n my mind--is what builds our relationship and prepares them to listen to what I have to say. Only then, once the wells of their need are filled with the grace of being loved, will my words to them about God's grace finally make sense."

| 0:00.0 | Hi everyone, welcome to Add Home with Sally. I'm Sally Clarkson and I have the biggest |
| 0:13.0 | privilege in the world to be with so many friends from all over the world who join me every |
| 0:18.6 | week to listen to my stories, inspiration, biblical encouragement. And I am just so glad |
| 0:24.6 | that you're here today. Thanks so much for joining me. |
| 0:37.4 | Hello everyone, it's Sally Clarkson with Add Home with Sally and friends and I am seeking |
| 0:44.2 | to be involved in all of your lives. I've had so many wonderful messages lately about how |
| 0:49.9 | these podcasts are encouraging you during this time of sequestering with coronavirus. And I'm |
| 0:56.8 | making a special effort to try to do some podcasts just so that we can kind of have fellowship with |
| 1:03.2 | one another every day or so four times a week as my goal at this point. I won't be doing this forever. |
| 1:09.7 | But I have been thinking about all of you and I think that it looks like things are going to be |
| 1:15.3 | changing soon. It looks like at least here in Colorado they're opening up everything by the end |
| 1:22.0 | of the weekend because we have so no full hospitals, very few cases. And I know it's going to be |
| 1:30.4 | crazy in parts of the rest of the United States and the rest of the world. So we're going to ride |
| 1:36.1 | this out and see what happens. But anyway, I am looking forward to sharing with you today because |
| 1:43.1 | I'm actually reading from my book again chapter five and 10 gifts of heart what your child needs |
| 1:48.7 | to take to heart before leaving home. And I keep saying this with all of these chapters, but as I'm |
| 1:54.7 | reading them, I'm realizing that a client I made very specific goals for what we wanted our |
| 2:01.8 | children to value and to be practiced at and to go into the world thinking this is who I am, |
| 2:08.8 | this is what I do. And that's a lot of what we're doing when we talk about shaping their heart. |
| 2:15.0 | We're shaping inside of them the value that says for our family, I am a Clarkson, Clarkson's, |
| 2:23.5 | serve people, Clarkson's, try to be gracious to people, Clarkson's and so on and so forth. |
