Teaching our Children
“Therefore you shall lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul. You shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes. You shall teach them your children, talking of them, when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up. You shall write them on the door posts of your house, and on your gates; that your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.” (Deuteronomy 11:18-21 WEB)
God wants us (parents) to teach our children. Nowadays there are many ways to outsource education, but we cannot leave our children completely in the hands of the secular education system.
The most important thing to teach our children from infancy is : God’s word. Teaching is not about seating them in front of a desk with a thick Bible and going through chapter by chapter.
Be led by the Holy Spirit, and whenever an appropriate teaching moment arises, use the chance to talk about Jesus and make the faith real and practical in your children’s lives.
For example, if your child fell down and scraped his knee, just comfort him and pray together, declaring that Jesus’ healing power is entering the wound to fix it.
Before each meal, thank Jesus for the food and declare it sanctified in Jesus’ name. Tell your children that the Lord is specially preparing the food to be clean, good, and healthy for them.
Whenever possible, quote portions of Scripture to etch it in your children’s hearts. “Wow look at all these gifts that we received! Praise Jesus—the Lord is truly our Shepherd, and we shall not lack!”
Teach them Gospel truths—what is applicable under the New Covenant of Grace. Definitely don’t make them recite or memorize the Ten Commandments of the Law.
The Gospel has a prospering effect. It has the power to save from every trouble. As a parent, and especially if you are a father, you are also entrusted with the role of leading your children in their spiritual growth.
“Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.” (Proverbs 22:6 WEB)
By the leading of the Holy Spirit, build a strong foundation of faith for your children, and they will greatly benefit from it throughout their lives!
When I wrote the book “Sandcastles Don’t Last Forever” the compiled truths within were designed for the whole family. It is so important that our children know from young that we do our best in life for the Lord’s sake, to worship Him, and that He is the one who will reward us. There is no need to live for the praise of men. This belief alone will save them from many disappointments and heartaches.
There are so many great lessons about eternal rewards in the book. I hope you can get it (either the eBook or a paperback copy) and share the truths with your children in a relatable way, after digesting the revelations yourself: http://bit.ly/sandcastlesdontlastforever

เมื่อวานได้ดูหนังเรื่อง Molly's Game (ซึ่งถัดจากนี้จะมีการเผยเนื้อหาสำคัญของเรื่อง) เป็นเรื่องของนักกีฬาสกีสาวอนาคตไกลที่ถูกพ่อเทรนมาอย่างหนักหนา เข้มงวด กดดัน จนกระทั่งเกือบได้เหรียญโอลิมปิก แต่แล้วเธอก็พลาดไปเพียงเพราะสะดุดกิ่งสนที่โผล่ขึ้นมาจากพื้นหิมะของลานสกีทำให้ล้มคว่ำไม่เป็นท่า จากนั้นชีวิตก็ลากพาเธอเข้าสู่ด้านสีเทา กลายเป็นคนเปิดบ่อนโป๊กเกอร์ (ซึ่งลูกค้าในบ่อนมีแต่ผู้ชายระดับบิ๊กจากสารพัดวงการ) กระทั่งถูกจับ และเกือบต้องเข้าคุก ทั้งที่สมัยเรียนเธอเป็นเด็กเรียนดีมาก

Continue ReadingYesterday, I watched Molly's game (next to this, the important content of the story). It was about the far future ski athlete who was trained by the father, pressured until almost got the Olympic Medal, but then she only missed it. Because of the pine branches that came up from the snow floor of the ski slope. Then life dragged her into the grey side to open poker. (there are only big men in the casino) Until I was arrested and almost went to jail in school. She was a very good student.
Molly and dad have always been so bad with how Molly feels that he loves her brother more than she is better at skiing). and dad feels like her daughter likes to interrupted and Molly. I hate dad harder when I know the secret that he cheated on mom.
The story comes to the end after disappearing from each other's lives. Both of them meet again at the ice rink in the middle of the city.
Father (which is an expensive psychiatrist) tells the child that all you have done for your life to win the father. Happiness from opening the casino is not because they get a lot of money. If it is the feeling that they have control those "men" to solve the knot when you were Command for the rest of my life.
Dad opened her an opportunity to ask. Molly asked how he felt about cheating on her mom because he felt like he did something too bad. Forgive him, control his mind and said yes, dad did what was bad but at least dad Well, raise three kids to grow up. One is a two-Time Olympic Champion. The other is a famous surgeon. The other earn hundreds of millions of millions (he means Molly) and dad says to Molly, " no one is perfect. But at least dad did the right thing "
My Dad's words, I thought he didn't say it to excuse himself, but this word heals Molly's mind as well.
Of course, this quote doesn't make people who do wrong things right because bad things deserve to get the consequences of that action, but this word makes us expand our perspective from looking at one person more.
When I'm angry, I hate someone, we often shrink our perspective. There are only narrow areas that we don't like. Remind that person in the same story and over and over again. Then that person becomes "just" that we forget other dimensions. His other stories are gone.
" Father " for Molly Shrinking the meaning to only " bad man who cheated on mother " even if he has other meaning, raised her to teach good things, strict, strict and disciplined or even the love that father gave you can't see.
In our life, there may be someone we accidentally " Judge " and shrink the perspective on him to only this narrow definition. The part that we try to answer his " fault " is because of us (who hates him) will become " Right side "
The worse he is, the more we get mad at him.
The more he is wrong, the more we are right.
...
Dad told Molly she saw that dad cheated on mom since she was five years old. Molly doesn't remember but it seems to be in her subconscious, so she was stubborn with her father and didn't like dad all the time. I knew that daughter saw secrets. I am ashamed every time I am in front of my child. I treat you without attachment like other people's children. These two things are reactions until it is a broken relationship of father. Cuddle kids.
When Molly expands his perspective on her father, she can love her father and receive love with other aspects of the father that mean positively to her.
With relationships in life, sometimes we aim for black spots on white paper and crush it with black pen repeatedly until the paper is torn through, forgetting that there is still a lot of white space to create good stories together.
Of course, some things are too painful to forgive. Distangence and step apart may be a better choice, but some hate is nice to expand your perspective to connect with other things.
As I said, this sentence heals Molly's " faults " together. As she grows up, she begins to have " faults " in life that are blown by the wind of emotions and fate. She begins to understand humanity more that humans are always wrong when Wrong, what I want most is a new beginning, giving and forgiveness especially - from our loved ones.
It's not strange that when we grow up, we can forgive people easier. Not that we are kinder, but because we have been wrong. We are more sympathy for those who do wrong. See from our own corner, we know that father's words are true. " no one is perfect but at least there is something right
In some times of relationship, we may have to try this glasses to check that the person we feel bad about him. Does wrong in our eyes. Does anything " do right
As well, in our lives, in a dark condition that we have made before feeling worse about ourselves than we are. Should check if we have "right" things in the same.
...
While watching the lives of two father and children stay away. I don't feel that what they did was wrong or should forgive them all. At least their lives show that humans are like this. We may do wrong some time but no one is bad. Looking at a human friend like this makes us see the truth of man rather than to expect the ideal goodness. If that person does wrong, then we will curse him as a demon or evil, angry, hate that we don't want to see each other again.
That should not be. There is a simple reason.
Because I'm wrong or today or next day
And we need the same perspective for ourselves. Please look at me as human beings. There is good, bad, there is right, wrong, but always need is love, understanding and forgive each other.
...
The movie ended with a scene where Molly had an accident from the back of the surgery. She could see if she got up, but then she stood up again with the same father she hated so much. Again.
Traumatized, full body wound but got up and walked on.
She said the one thing she always had was " the spirit of never giving up
Which I believe - she got this from dadTranslated
