STEEMCHURCH: Train the child in a good way.

in #steemchurch7 years ago

Train up a child in the way he should go:
and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
Proverbs 22:6

Did you know that this verse is one of the most quoted from the book of Proverbs? In this verse the word to learn comes from the Hebrew: chanak, and means to start, to narrow, to train, to discipline, to instruct. Being a parent is an extraordinary task and we should not take little responsibility for it because of the training that we give to children depends on the path they will choose in this world and also depends on the future of the eternal . Today I urge you to review what your children are watching and what they are hearing, "everything is lawful but not everything is in my best interest" says the Bible in
1 Corinthians 10: 23-26. On many occasions what children see and hear on TV, the Internet, radio, etc., does not help them for good, they are things that do not build and it is good to have some vigilance. This does not mean that we are going to separate them from the world and to enclose them in a vault. Do not get me wrong, what I want to say is that it is necessary to be careful and be alert to what they are consuming through these means, as it may be that Instead of building something healthy by destroying its human values, it is important to be vigilant. Watch wisely and begin to add more information from God, with stories, videos, music, also with books of biblical stories and you will reach the point where they themselves will begin to improve and to capture the human values ​​that we also find in the Bible.

Take time to pray with them each day before going to sleep, when you get up and before they also learn to give thanks before eating. "Give thanks to God for everything", it is good that there is an important time for communion with God during the day and also as a family, so we have the opportunity to open a bridge of communication with them and that they are not closed at the moment of telling their daily problems, and in addition to this form they are taught that God is present at all times and in every way they do, willing to help them, they learn that we depend on God. So we can notice that the goal of Proverbs 22: 6 is to show us the fatherly task in a direction of divine equilibrium. If parents do their part, God makes theirs. Of course, there is no guarantee because as they grow they decide the path they want to choose, but at least if there is a sense and impulse of enthusiasm, participation, and fulfillment. Personally, God gave me the blessing of having a daughter. I asked God to help me instruct her to be a good woman and to love Heavenly Father. He listened to me and helped me. Today she is a young married woman dedicated to the service of GOD with her husband. I motivate you that, like me, you teach your children I do not say they are perfect but if you teach them to love and fear GOD, I can say that by doing this their lives will be more bearable. I hope this reflection will help you, many blessings.
