There is a new autho on the Life as a Christian Woman website. Linda Williams writes about being a woman of faith, and living the Christian Life. I would encourage you to read her post “Who Sets the Example for Your Children?”Being the main example for your children is important, and too often parents in general trust in the world to be good examples. Maybe not consciously, but when we allow our kids to be greatly influenced by movie stars, video games, the latest fashions, and even seemingly innocent family programmes, we are not only allowing, but encouraging influence that may not measure up to the standard God wants us to have. (Read the Bible- parents are to be the main influence).
Being the example is a hige responsibility, but even if we allow others to be the example, we- the parents- are still accountable for who and how they are influenced.
Take control, be a good example of how to live, love, and serve God in your gifts.
Like the movie “Field of Dreams” says….If we build it, they will come.
