Stress is a daily part of our lives. We can’t hide Children from stress but can only find ways to minimize its effects on us. A little stress though is good for us.
Children also experience stress. It could be a bully at school, a harsh teacher, or even an uncomfortable classroom.
At home, it could be rifts between siblings, parental discord, or the death of a family member or friend.
Older children often are able to identify something that is bothering them, unlike younger ones who have not acquired the capacity to do so.
And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And Eli perceived that the LORD had called the child. – 1 Sam 3:8 KJV
Children don’t and can’t manage stress the way adults do. It shows through their words, actions, and behaviours.
Little Samuel heard God calling to him but didn’t know what to do. He ran to Eli every time he heard God’s voice asking if the old priest was the one calling him. Eli identified that it was God calling little Samuel. He then told Samuel what to say when next he heard the voice.
The bible doesn’t record that Samuel experienced any stress but it was a situation that was new to him. He couldn’t process it and went to the only person he knew that could help. And Eli was able to help him.
Parents must be observant to notice any change in their child. Children won’t tell you what is disturbing them immediately, even when you ask. Only by observing can a parent find out. Parents must give total attention to children when they are speaking.
Declaration:
My children are not stressed. They learn to speak out. They are surrounded daily with the right people. Amen.
Prayer (parent):
Lord, help me to be truly observant about my children. Help me to notice the changes in them no matter how subtle they may be. Amen.
Child:
I will speak out when I have an issue bothering me. I will ask for help.
Action plan:
Parents, sit down, and watch your child today. Go through their things, room, and find things you never noticed before.
