Highlights From Higher Ground

From: "Toward a Christian
Marriage"

Our children are God's gift to us. If we are Christians, they are
God's; and it is our responsibility to hide them in Christ. It is our
responsibility to say 'No' to the world, which in every subtle way
would put it's stamps upon their minds and hearts. Our children are
given to us to raise for God. They are not given to us for our own
comfort, our joy-although we get comfort and joy from them; but they
are given to us by God to raise for Him. God has set fathers and,
under them, mothers to rule over their own families well, having their
"children in subjection with all gravity," with all godliness.
