SOW IS JUST A TOOL

"You MAKE your children do prayer letters and read the Bible for school?? Isn't that going to turn them off to Christianity?"

I've never had someone actually say this, but the devil has whispered it into my ear before. We can use the study of the Bible to be a hard task master or use it to open up the wonders of our Creators words, which have been gifted to us as a guide for our lives here and forever. As Moms our hearts are the true teacher and we can see our heart reflected back to us within our children's lives. God heart is not condemning! He came to give life and life more abundantly. He is the author of hope! He can speak a word and our worst situation is gone. A river will be made in the middle of the desert. Let us thirst for Him ladies! So that we may see our hearts desire fulfilled. May our children be planted and their roots deep within God's word. Let us savor the precious relationship with have with them and our Lord, that our words would be a well of life toward them, to water His word in their hearts. Amen

You know what is sad is that it IS a thought in our 'christian' circle. We are so afraid of turning our kids off to the gospel, and it is definately a lie from the pits of hell. Mercy, I am proud of you for your unwaivering honesty. Thank you for your example to follow in. (i am on the SOW yahoo group too.)
