[:en]SOAKING UP GOD’S WORD
God encouraged His people to teach the younger generation to obey the Scripture.. “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with your strength. These commandments that I give to you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes of your house and on your gates” (Deut. 6:4-9)
Let us saturate our hearts and minds with Scripture to better prepare ourselves in sharing God’s love and truth with our children. Let us lead by example by equiping and encouraging them to recognize and respect the authority and relevance of God’s unchanging truth. Let us leave a a strong legacy of faith as we have it passed down from generation to generation. – (Xochitl Dixon)[:]
