Watch over your heart

My Manna

"Watch over your heart with all diligence, for from it flow the springs of life." Proverbs 4:23.

Our culture is obsessed with success!

We are obsessed not only with our own personal success-

-         But we may be even more obsessed with providing our children with the tools they need to become successful.

We all want to do our best!

But a lot of times-

-         there's confusion about what real success is

There's a nebulous understanding that-

-         Success means that our child will one day get a good education, have a good job, a good family and be good citizen.

But-

That is a very short-sighted view!

It's not much success-

- If our children grow up to have worldly success for fifty years-

- And then spend eternity in hell.

That's a temporary success-

-         but an eternal failure!

In God's eyes-

- Success means discovering His will for your life,

- And using that purpose for the glory of God,

- Not for the glory of self.  

We must see that big picture when we help our children become truly successful.

When a child grows to understand that-

- then the child has a far greater chance of experiencing real, lasting success,

- for they will be successful in God's eyes.
