Day 139 8-8

Eph 6:4 "Do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline of the Lord."

Deut 6:5...

Starts off with a command to parents, love the Lord with all my heart, soul, and strength. Put these words on my heart Lord, more like engrave them to permeate through me so that I make it a priority. May talking about the truths in scripture come naturally to me as we are at home, on walks, going to bed, waking up, basically all the time.

Now I know these commands were specifically to the Israelites, but I believe they are still very applicable to me today. 

v. 18  "You shall do what is right and good in the sight of the Lord that it may be well with You."

I love the intentional, diligent, serious, and passionate love and priority God emphasizes of our children. He knows how important children are and the impact they can have in this world. So doing everything we can to bring them up lovingly in a Biblically sound foundation full of grace is critical in this world.
