There From Here
Every parent has a special opportunity to pass on the truths of God's Word to the next generation. When we try to navigate life without following Biblical instructions, it reminds me of a time I visited a building that was being remodeled.
I asked a custodian for directions, and he pointed across a mass of construction debris to a hallway. With a confused look, he said, "That's where you need to go. But you can't get there from here."
If you aren't seeking God through his Word, life will be as confusing and muddled as trying to negotiate through that construction debris. We simply won't know how to get there from here.
One final thought. Why don't you take some time tonight, pull your family close, and read from the scriptures together. Make it a daily habit. God will show you how to get from where you are, to where you need to be.
