We can’t afford to overlook children or to think of them as unimportant; they are the future. Children are always observing the behavior of the adults in their lives, which means we have a wonderful opportunity to be examples of godliness and influence them for Christ.
You start by investing your time. Whether it’s through outdoor activities, reading together, or playing games, we’re modeling Christian living. As you listen to them closely, you'll understand the way they think and the struggles they face. Then you can offer scriptural guidance to influence them toward righteousness. By sharing something of your past and admitting your mistakes, you're making it easier for them to identify with you and accept your counsel.
Showing children God’s love is a great way to help them grow in godliness. Although you can’t do this perfectly, each time you love them unselfishly and unconditionally, you're helping them realize how much the heavenly Father loves them.
