Have you shared the plan of salvation with your children? As followers-of-Jesus who faithfully go to church, we often rely on the Sunday school to tell our children about Jesus and His sacrifice for us.  Maybe your children have been going to church since they were born.  Maybe they were even baptized there. But, have you ever sat down with each of your children individually and shared God’s plan of salvation and spoken with them about it?  Have you given them an opportunity to pray with you and invite Jesus Christ into their hearts?

Sometimes this can be a difficult thing to do as a parent, especially if you never had a parent who did that with you. But, your child could easily go to church their entire life and never have the opportunity to really accept Christ. Remember, God has no grandchildren, He only has children. Is your child one of His children? The time you take to tell your children about the Lord, to train them in His ways, will become precious memories for both of you.  Let’s ask God to give us wisdom and to reveal how to continually tell each of our children of the love of our Lord.
