I get asked this question by moms all the time...
"How do I get my children to love the Word of God?"
Well, your children need to see their mom reading the Word,
studying the Word, praying the Word, talking about the Word, but most
importantly...living the Word! Be a living testimony of the power in that
precious Book and pray over your children!
I am living proof! Growing up I witnessed my mom immersed in
God's Word daily. She lived it in front of me and taught it to me! Because of
her deep love for the Word and prayer over her children, I am forever hooked! I
saw the magnificence of God's love lived out through my mom and now I cannot
get enough my God and His amazing Word! My desire is to know my God more, to
love Him more, and to serve Him more! I now have that same opportunity to share
that deep love with my own children and pray that they grow to love it and live
it as well! Such big responsibility but such great honor!
Don't lose heart dear, sweet mamas. Hold tight to His Word and
keep on praying! Live it out loud and continue being a shining light to your
children!
"Love God, your God, with your whole heart: love him with all
that’s in you, love him with all you’ve got! Write these commandments that I’ve
given you today on your hearts. Get them inside of you and then get them inside
your children. Talk about them wherever you are, sitting at home or walking in
the street; talk about them from the time you get up in the morning to when you
fall into bed at night. Tie them on your hands and foreheads as a reminder;
inscribe them on the doorposts of your homes and on your city gates."
Deuteronomy 6:5-9 (MSG)
