WHAT DO THEY SEE?
It's not enough for us to know a few Scriptures of the Bible? It's not enough for us to rely on a Sunday sermon each week. God wants His words to dwell in us RICHLY (Colossians 3:16). He wants His words to LIVE IN US!
In other words, our children should not only hear God's Words from us, but they should SEE THEM LIVING OUT IN OUR LIVES (Psalm 40:3). His Word should show forth from our countenance and from the way we act and speak. This was the testimony of Lois and Eunice.
Paul writes to Timothy, "I have been reminded of your sincere faith, which FIRST LIVED in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded now LIVES IN YOU also" (1 Timothy 1:5 NIV). Can we make this our heartfelt prayer? That God Words will LIVE IN US and will therefore have such an impact upon our children and grandchildren that they will also LIVE IN THEM! Amen.
