"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

Psalm 78:4b, 7

we will tell the next generation
the praiseworthy deeds of the LORD,
his power, and the wonders he has done.

Then they would put their trust in God
and would not forget his deeds
but would keep his commands.

God reminded me tonight about why teaching our children about His Ways is important. Sometimes when the kids are acting up or not doing what I want them to, I lose sight of the goal.

To be a Godly example for them so they will develop a growing relationship with Jesus.

It was just the reminder I needed after a few very busy days.
