What i did back in time when my Childrens was little(now 26, and 22 years old) when they go to the bed, i read the BIBLE to them for bed time story. the Childrens BIBLE have a cartoon picture(like Precious moment), soon my little girl back then she was 3years old, one day she suprasing me she start to reading the BIBLE. (the Josep have colorful lobe from Father Jacob.) i still don`t forget about that moment, it is precious moment for every Parents dream of 3years old reading. all does bed time BIBLE reading and prayer, and teaching about the Love of the LORD JESUS. when they growup the man hurt them bad, but thier love for the JESUS and the Grace of JESUS, they forgive him, and teach me about true love. they told me and write on my Journal book" LOVE is greater then Hate" teaching the BIBLE reading and Prayer to our children, they maybe gos to wrong way one time or other, but always return back to the ARMS of the LORD JESUS. <:>< mia

Nathan, as a young Mother , I did not bring my children up in the church . Oh we went from time to time . I was married to a man that believed all you had to do was be a good person and you got into heaven . I did manage to see both of my children become saved . I had no example of what it meant or what my duties as a parent was to my children in bringing them up to learn about the Lord.
Well the Lord gave me another chance .. my daughter Amy gave me 3 grandsons. And I have ran with it . I began early teaching them about God's love. They pray , they say their grace and they are constantly asking questions about the bible . Now I live 2 hours away but when they are with me we attend church. I have bought them their own bibles , we listen to Christian music together. I am not going to let God down. I have explained to Amy that it is her responcibility to raise these boys in a Godly home and to teach them about the Lord. I have never seen two little boys that love the Lord and want to live for Him daily . My little Anthony was praying at school the other day over his lunch and one of the teachers told him he could not do that .. that praying at school was not allowed . She told him to do it in silence . Anthony .. looked up at her an said .... " Does Jesus know we cannot pray at school ? He asked me why they did this and I explained to him the best way I could . My biggest joy is listening to them read their bibles. Dontae reads everyday. This is my chance .. I want them to know the Lord is with us always, no matter what age .
