Answering \u201cwhy\u201d early saves sorrow later.<\/p>\n
\u201cJohnny\u2019s questions seem endless.\u201d<\/p>\n
The early years of childhood are filled with a curious stream of questions about why. Once you have given the same answers over and over again, repeat the questions and see if your children have \u201cgotten it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Deposit truth early in your child. Later in life, when you\u2019re not around, your child will have a reservoir of answers to ongoing questions about self, life, and God.<\/p>\n
Without your early, truthful answers, a child will mature without foundations and virtue. The world offers too many wrong answers to life\u2019s important questions. Children are bombarded with TV, video, music, computer, school, and peer answers to life\u2019s questions. But drinking from those often contaminated and polluted wells can produce stinking thinking and bad attitudes.<\/p>\n
Your truthful answers, rooted in God\u2019s Word, given early in a child\u2019s life, produce deep wells of living water from which a child can drink for a lifetime.<\/p>\n
Young people can live a clean life by obeying your word. I worship you with all my heart. Don\u2019t let me walk away from your commands. I treasure your word above all else; it keeps me from sinning against you <\/i>(Psalm 119:9\u201311 CEV).<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
