Daniel 8, 1 John 3: 11-24, Proverbs 21: 27-31, Proverbs 22: 1-6
Proverbs 22: 6 (ESV)
“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is
old he will not depart from it.”
Verse 6 from Proverbs 22 reminds me to be grateful to my
mom. She loved Christ and tried to instill in me a love of Christ from a very
young age. I grew up going to church and watching her pray and trying to be a
good person of faith. She didn’t always succeed, but she tried. That early teaching
to love God came back to me as I grew older. I don’t think that feeling of
loving God ever left me fully, but it took a back seat for many years of my
life. And when the timing was right, those early memories of loving God came
back and reminded me that God was always there for me in m life.
I thank my mom and all moms for never hiding their love of Christ
from their children. Your love of God will influence your children for the rest
of their lives.
