IS IT ENOUGH?

We are so blessed to live in a nation that has a godly constitution as the basis of our nation. There is no nation that has such a foundation. May it continue, even against all current trends. But, is it enough? No. Even though it is such a powerful document, there is one even greater. It is God's living Word, the Bible. The Bible must be our foundation for every part of our lives--our marriage, family life, and everything we do.

Without making it our foundation, it is easy to build on a shaky foundation. It is so easy to get off key, to move slightly away from God's plumbline. And God doesn't allow for deviation. His way is the only way that works! But, it will not work unless we know what He says. As mothers, we have to be filled with His Word. It has to not only be in our heart, but in our mouth (Isaiah 59:21).

It's not enough for us to know it, but we are responsible that our children should know it, too. That's why we need to come to the Family Altar morning and evening to read God's Word to our children. Do you get tired of my reminding you about this? Oh forgive me, but I cannot stop until I see God's people, all over the land doing this in their the family life. Without it our children will not grow up familiar with God's plan for every department of our lives. And if they don't truly KNOW God's plan, they will easily be sucked into the deceiving propaganda of our humanistic society.
