Our Chilren Belong to Jesus First!

     Yesterday, I was reminded of just how true this statement really is. It is a strange thing to think of our children as our brothers and sisters in Christ, but that is exactly what we are suppose to raise them to be. Our job as mom is to make sure that we train them in the way of the Lord and teach them diligently about our Savior. Yesterday, I got news that a teenager I knew as a child has cancer and the doctors state that there is nothing else they can do for him.


     This got me thinking about the short amount of time we really have to train our children and how heart breaking it would be to not know where they will spend eternity. The good news is the young man I talked about, does have a relationship with HIS savior and the parents can have a peace, through heart break and tears, that they will see their son again.


    Our children do not have the luxury of time to return to the Lord as prodigals that we had. We are in the end times and the generation that saw Israel become a state are elderly, and the Bible states that this generation will see Jesus return for HIS children. 

Mat 24:34	"Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place.
Mar 13:30	"Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place.
Luk 21:32	"Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all things take place.

     It is so important for us to know this, that it is in three of the Gospels. We need to take the Salvation of our children seriously stay on our knees in prayer for the Salvation of their souls.

     If we have a prodigal child we need to pray without ceasing and diligently for their Salvation. I would also ask everyone to pray for them and fill pout the prayer cards at church. Never give up and decide to just sit and wait for your child to return to the fold of Jesus!!
