Thoughts for the Day

God has given every parent a wondrous privilege and a great responsibility. Our goal as godly parents should be to help our children grow and develop in such a way that they will have healthy relationships both within and outside the family, and most importantly a personal relationship with God, the Father of us all.

But how do we do this?

The Bible teaches principles of godly parenting that will help us guide, direct and love our children. This week we will be looking at one general, but vital, principle: consistency. God is consistent with us.
He consistently loves us, disciplines us and cares for us. And this must be our aim as parents. We must be consistent in all that we do with our children.

God's relationship with us sets the pattern for our relationship with our children. We can always count on Him to be consistent. Today's Bible verse tells us that Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. God loves us, is available to us, teaches us, disciplines us and blesses us consistently. We can count on him.


Consider This . . .

Our children need to know that they can count on us to be consistent, but consistency is difficult to develop and practice. Unlike our heavenly Father, we will not be perfectly consistent, but we can work toward the goal. It's a process, and as we trust God, he will help us.
