Motivational Monday
A good bit of attention has been given to the word character in the last few decades. It seems the world has decided that character doesn’t really count in such areas as politics, entertainment, and media. But the Bible makes it clear that character does count, and as parents and grandparents we need to take this to heart.
Children love to catch us doing the right thing. It gives them a sense of security that all is right in their world. The days are long gone when mom, dad, grandma and grandpa were the only influencers in a child’s life. The old farmhouse situated miles away from the nearest neighbor rarely exists today. Even if it does, it’s probably well-equipped with Internet. So, now, more than ever, children need to see their parents and grandparents doing the right thing. We teach our children so many things. Let’s remember to teach them that character does count.
