My father always read a scripture to us when we were children, and even though I only had him in my life for eleven years, and went astray later on, I remembered his teaching and when the Father brought me to His Son Jesus I realized how cunning the spiritual enemy can be if we don't have God's Word in our lives. However, the scriptures tell us that every day of our lives is written in His book before even one of them was formed, and although I went astray in my early days after my dad had died those times gave me empathy with those who have gone down the same road and need to come to the Lord. God bless Laurie, it is nice to be back blogging.Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16165344093549650260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8901842915517693862.post-5137694226147322382021-09-12T18:23:07.706-07:002021-09-12T18:23:07.706-07:00Dear Frank,

So I reposted it there!<br />What I meant to say was, you are quite right! Children imitate what they see and hear, and are quick to spot insincerity or hypocrisy. I regret not being saved until our son was 10, but I'm blessed that he too was saved soon thereafter, despite liberal teaching in the school he attended.<br />Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.<br />May God bless you and Alex,<br />Laurie Laurie Colletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10676088158113572565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8901842915517693862.post-73740704800886722482021-09-12T18:01:12.066-07:002021-09-12T18:01:12.066-07:00Dear Frank,

Worked like a charm! Not that he didn't have the skills to be successful anyway, but every little bit helps!

Rearing children in the Lord is, I be...Dear Laurie,<br />Rearing children in the Lord is, I believe, a heavy responsibility for any Christian parent. I once read that the child is watching the behaviour of his parents a good deal of the time.<br />Many children of Christian parents end up as atheists after observing what appears as "do what I say, not what I do." Then a stint of the University tuition will push the student further towards atheism.<br />In the UK, up to 88% of all students raised by Christian parents have their faith destroyed by the tuition of Evolution on the campus. But this, I think, has much to do with leaving home with a less than adequate Christian upbringing.<br />This shows how short of ideal such parenting can be.<br />Blessings to you and Richard.Frank E.
