Our relationship with God - The key piece in the formation of our children

Every terrorist was a child one day; and also every missionary. The difference between the two lies in the influence of the parents. The influence of both the family and religious aspects, since obviously children have to be educated from the moment the child becomes aware of things and In that eagerness to want to know everything that surrounds him, this daily intimate contact with the mother will make that love last forever above all things, then comes the training in the sense that things are accessible to the child and what things are not. accessible, even if he has his tantrums that leave us stunned and many mothers in order to save this situation allow the child to get what he wants even knowing that this is wrong

I particularly have a saying “what is yes, is yes. What is no, is no ”,

Meaning by this that there are things that the child can access, and there are other things that he definitely cannot access. And the word NO acquires a determining, indisputable and mandatory character.

Now touching our relationship with God, if from childhood we instill in our children this love of God, not only by word but by example of life, we will be sowing a good Christian, a child who from his childhood and already on his own, will seek this beautiful relationship with the heavenly father, because everything that he has assimilated since childhood will be of great benefit in his Christian life.

If there was not that approach from childhood, it will be a little more difficult (but not impossible) to assimilate later, that is why many older people who since childhood did not have that contact with God, it takes a lot, many hours of dedication for be able to assimilate the word of God in his heart, because this (heart) is full of material things that are opposed to the Word of God and as all change is resisted by nature in the human being, for there the mission of evangelizing takes a lot time and many hours of dedication and many times with frustration because those hearts are too materialized.

Let's not forget an important thing, the first thing that one captures, is what enters through the eyes, it will be useless to say words if they are against what we see. Furthermore, this brings confusion to those who see us and listen to us. And they prefer to withdraw from preaching. Thus, the example of life, the testimony of life, have an important priority, in the formation of the people who observe us, whether they are children or adults.

Our relationship with God has to be a daily approach with our creator, in prayer, reading his Word and meditation on it. To see how this reading affects our lives, either to certify our attitudes, or to correct our behavior. In the daily walk with Jesus Christ, we will be far from proceeding in the wrong way, separating ourselves from everything that can harm, that beautiful relationship. Let us always walk guided by his Light and his Word.

Then we will be sowers of love and God in our children.

God bless us and help us to be good parents.
