Unless the Lord is the foundation of our home, everything is vain and useless. All our hard work is for nothing, because He will grant rest to those He loves.

 Children are such a joy and a blessing to our lives. Of all the things we work hard to do in this life, our children are the only true heritage that will last throughout eternity. 

 I heard someone recently quote Teddy Roosevelt in regards to Wed. night Bible study and children having school (either homework or needing their sleep). The quote was, “I would rather have my children in heaven learning their ABCs than in hell speaking Greek and Latin.”

 WOW! If only parents understood that our children are a blessing even on the worst of days!  We have been entrusted with a most valuable treasure.  We must realize that there is no sacrifice too great when it comes to raising our children. We will stand before God and give answer to Him for the kind of parents we have been.

 Deut. 6:6-9 tells us to take every opportunity to teach them.
