Train up a child
As a shared in the last newsletter my house had been broken into. And I talked to the father of one of the kids who broke into my home. As we talked I learn more about that child and learned about the father. But how he raised his children and listen to the way he talked about them. And I thought back to the way I raise my children and how the lord showed me how to raise my children. And proverbs 23:13 it’s not to withhold discipline, from a child. My wife and I (Terry) had to learn the correct way to discipline. I can brag about my children now my children have a great work ethics. Every one of them feels it is better to work. Given employer a day’s work for a day’s pay, that is what I have always told them. I believe that some scriptures from proverbs that will I hope open some eyes to the way we should raise our children the way God has intended it to be. We should stop trying to Legislate morality in the world and start teaching morality in the home. The foundation of all of God’s words start in the home. We as parents need to stop counting on Teachers coaches Sunday school teachers the pastor of the church as parents start pastor own homes. Now understand something right off the bat I believe in going to church I believe in being involved in the local parish or church it is important that we fellowship is important that we have somebody to go to war were having problems in scriptural it’s important that you have other parents to talk to the share to pray with the cry on their shoulders were left one another up would be a family. Men should take the rightful place as head of the home. The scriptures say in the first Corinthians chapter seven that a man or woman leave their parents (, paraphrasing right now) two Cleve one another, now what is that saying, it’s saying they leave the home to be married. I believe that were responsible for our children until they start their own home. I have some controversial views on things Some people don’t like them some people of all some people like to make fun of me but nonetheless I know what is God will reveal your mind to expose your heart. Like I said earlier Here are some scriptures and proverbs read them study them learn them.
I hope this helps, bless you that read this.
And his holy name Jesus Christ lord savior of all.
