Train up your children in the LORD


 -Kinsman

"Religion in a Family is at once its brightest   Ornament and its best Security."


-Samuel Adams (1780)

*

Proverbs 22:6, 17-21


..."Train up a child in the way he should go,

Even when he is old he will not depart from it...


...Incline your ear and hear the words of the wise,

And apply your mind to my knowledge;


For it will be pleasant if you keep them within you,

That they may be ready on your lips.


So that your trust may be in the Lord,

I have taught you today, even you.


Have I not written to you excellent things

Of counsels and knowledge,


To make you know the certainty of the words of truth

That you may correctly answer him who sent you?"...

Jill,
You give such encouragement with your comments and beautiful pictures, reminding us to keep our focus, our thankfulness, our future outlook on the Lord, who did so much in shedding His blood on the cross- His supreme sacrifice to save us. Always good to read what you post. Thank you!
