Teaching youths

“Teach a youth about the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.”

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭22‬:‭6‬ ‭HCSB‬‬

I have many youths around me at present; my grandchildren are as tall as timbers. While they teach me to play computer games I teach them diligence in doing tasks. My daughter in law has been away all wekk but I can see the training they have received. The five of them share the housework. Each day their tasks rotate. However, when it comes time to remember to hang out the washing, games interfere, that’s where I come in.  My focus is doing jobs before pleasure.

My son is showing his children what a praying father looks like. He has his time with the Lord every morning and has gone to paper-based bible study to keep away from distractions. I commend him for it. His eldest who is now 17 has his own smart phone and needs to also follow in his father’s footsteps.

I am grateful that I trained my son and now he is training his children. I am grateful that my Heavenly Father trains me. Amen
