All this week we’re looking at what we need to embrace for ourselves and in turn teach to our kids about what it means to walk with God. The guidance comes from the writings of the seventeenth century Puritan writer, Jeremiah Burroughs. Burroughs tell us that when we are walking with God, we will depend on God for direction. In today’s world, so many cultural voices are calling out to our kids, inviting them to come and follow. If they assent, they will find themselves on what the Bible calls the wide road that leads to destruction. But if we are Christians, we are called to ignore those voices, instead looking to and depending on God over the course of our lives. We must teach our kids to pray, “Lord, lead me, guide me.” Burroughs says that wicked hearts avoid listening to and following the guidance of the Lord. We must teach our kids that rather than listening to the voices in the world or their own untrustworthy thoughts, we are to seek to hear God speak in His Word and walk in His ways.
