God's Word never goes out
of vogue for Christians. It is relevant for every stage of life, and is the
source of life itself. Believers who ask the Lord for wisdom with their children
will find it, for he has promised, “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask
of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to
him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a
wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. (James 1:5-6 NKJV) Then when
the children are grown, God's Word says that those parents will still bear
fruit in old age and be fresh and flourishing. (Psalm 92:14
NKJV)

Lord, I want to meditate
daily on Your Word so that I can sort out the many voices of advice that the
world gives. Only by knowing the truth can I recognize error, and find that
narrow way that leads to life. Help me to influence our children so that they
too will "delight in the law of the Lord." and avoid the "counsel of the
ungodly."

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for
my path. Psalm 119:105 NIV 62631
