There are many things we can do for our children-and teaching God’s Word is at the top of the list! If you love God and you’re a mother, find time in your busy schedule to teach God’s Word to your children. It will have value for salvation now and for eternity.
Ruth Graham said of motherhood, “It’s the nicest, most rewarding job in the world, second in importance to none, not even preaching.” Then she added, “Maybe it is preaching!” Can you see how your role of mom includes giving biblical truth to your children at every opportunity? Take the time and effort to consistently bring God’s love and truth to the hearts of your children. It’s never too early — or too late — to begin!
Father, give me a passion to teach Your Word to my children-to instill in them Your truth and wisdom. Give me a desire to share a message of faith that moves their young hearts toward You. Amen.
