SECURE YOUR FUTURE 2
Text: Proverbs 22:6
By: Adeaga O. Favour
Every parent is first the role model to their children, whatever they do determines what the children learn. You can’t be telling your children something while you are doing the opposite, they will soon discover and think pretence is part of life thereby making them to pretend as well.
Whatever you have not seen in your child is what you have not inscribed in such. The first point of learning comes from home, it is a failure on the parents’ part when they push this responsibility to the child’s teacher in school or elsewhere.
Ps 32:8 says “I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.” Training your children is about instructing, teaching and guiding them in the way to go. This means after you have told them what to do, you watch them do it.
REFLECTION FOR TODAY:
Paying the price today is securing a rest for yourself tomorrow.
PRAY:
Father, let my children know and walk in Your ways all their days in Jesus’ name.
