Today's post is written by a dear, dear friend of mine. She has graduated two children from her homeschool and has two more on the way! I first met Denise at a homeschool literature fair, and then God placed her in my path again at our homeschool co-op. Denise is a tender spirit whose gifts are that of mercy and encouragement. I KNOW you will enjoy her post today.
Choose Wisely: Teaching our children to choose a life of faith
By Denise Leak
“You must choose, but choose wisely. For as the true Grail will bring you life, the false Grail will take it from you.”
(Indiana Jones, The Last Crusade)
How do we teach our children to choose wisely? In a predominantly secular, faithless, selfish world where self-sufficiency and ‘follow your heart’ mentalities reign, teaching our children to choose wisely seems to be a daunting task. However, we know that this is our most important calling and we must teach our children to know truth, seek wisdom and choose wisely the path of life.
Devotion time this morning and I am with our two boys reading about obedience. From Character Sketches, Volume 1, we read about the Wood Duck.
I am deeply moved by the spiritual lessons from this study in nature.
God’s design for life.
