What I Want My Children to Remember About Our Home

What I Want My Children to Remember About Our Home

That their father and mother loved each other so much.

That our home was a happy one because, we all worked to keep it that way.

That each child was given every possible opportunity to develop her own personality.

That each child’s personal possessions were sacred to her if kept in their proper place.

The books in the house were to be read and handled rightly, as well as TV shows and games and that none were under lock and key because of questionable content.

That absolute truth abided there; no earnest questioner, however young, was put off with evasion and excuses.

That Sunday was the happiest day of the week, one which we all looked forward to because it was the day when we went to church together  to worship the God of truth.

That although father and mother worked hard and long at their respective jobs, they found time every day to have fun with their children, and pray.

 

Deuteronomy 11:18-19“Therefore you shall lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your soul, and bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 19 You shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.”
