Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.

                                                                                                             

--Proverbs 22:6

 

As Christian moms and dads, we are to train our children…to teach them how to live life. We are to teach them to be upright, to be honest, moral, and most importantly, to love God.

 

There are two worldviews today. Either God is in control or man is. Don’t be fooled into thinking your child won’t be influenced by our humanistic society. You can’t isolate them that much! 

 

What you can do is teach them…train them…show them how much God loves them…and pray for them. That’s the best protection you can give your kids. 

 

Deuteronomy 6:7 says to impress the commandments of God on the hearts of your children. Talk to them about the things of God when you’re hanging out at home or when you’re taking them to school. Make God a part of your everyday conversation! 

 

Your children are a wonderful gift…and responsibility…from God. Why would you not want to be heavily involved in the people they become? Work to raise wise children who love God. There’s no better gift you could give your child!

 

make it a priority to teach your kids to love God.
