Family was God’s Idea

I realize not all parents are married but I personally agree with what the bible teaches us about marriage.  It is a great way to begin a family.

The couple in the video below made it look like a fun beginning.

That made me smile and dance. How about you?

It helps when parents see the lighter side of life. There will always be challenges and struggles in life.

Put God in the centre. He can guide and support you through them.

If you are unable to attend church but would like to hear some teachings from the bible. City Church Maroochydore has podcasts you can listen to.

“Train up a child…”

Proverbs 22:6

“Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it”

We need a SOLID FOUNDATION - a road map to follow to pass onto our children.

‘Train up’ in Hebrew translates to ‘BIT’ inside a horse’s mouth to bring under submission.

As a parent I see it as our job to help guide, train, shape, mould, instruct, love, warn and teach our children but ultimately it is  Jesus who leads them to God and the destiny he has for their life.

The first 7 years of a child’s life is the perfect time to set the blueprint for how you want them to live.

Personally, I see the Bible as having some good instruction. I will share these with you in this category.
