Unborn

Psalm 78 cont’d: That they should teach them to their children, That the generation to come might know, even the children yet to be born, That they may arise and tell them to their children, That they should put their confidence in God And not forget the works of God, But keep His commandments,

Wow, even our unborn children can hear and feel and sense what we’re teaching them, before their bodies ever enter the world.  What our kids’ ears hear is part of our responsibility as parents.  It’s great to limit TV watching, ban certain types of lyrics in music, and screen where and whom our kids spend time with…

However, we must tell our kids of the work God does in our own lives.  

It’s better to share with them how he healed your headache, than to just tell them that God heals.  It’s a stronger testimony to reveal to your kids the love of God by offering the homeless man a meal, than it is to preach to them about giving.

Telling our kids involves doing and being and living a life of thanksgiving to God, both in action and in word.

Let them see. 

Then they too will put their confidence in Him.
