How can we inspire our children to love God and His Word?<\/strong>\u00a0What can we do to raise children who will love God and live their lives in joyful obedience to Him —\u00a0even after they leave our homes?<\/p>\n Of course, our most effective tool is prayer<\/strong>. God is the one who does His work in the hearts of our children. But He will use us<\/em> in the process, and one of the best ways we can help instill a love for God and His Word is by our\u00a0own example<\/strong>.\u00a0We can show our children how important Scripture is in our own<\/em> lives!<\/p>\n We should let our children see us:<\/strong><\/p>\n We can’t lead our children where we aren’t going ourselves!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n If you need some help<\/strong> digging into the Word, if you would enjoy joining with other ladies<\/strong> for a study online, or if you would like a detailed plan<\/strong> for studying a passage of Scripture for the next month with your children<\/strong>, stick around!<\/p>\n Starting this Saturday, March 1, we will be launching our next “30 Days Study for Busy, Busy Mamas”.
