Hello dear parent,
The greatest gift we can give our children is not wealth or education.
It is a heart that loves God and loves others.
Everything else flows from this.
When children love God, they learn to love themselves.
When they love others, they learn to serve and give.
When they have both, they become the kind of people who make the world better.
But how do we teach this?
How do we raise children who genuinely love God and love others?
Here are 3 simple ways to start
1. Show them what love looks like
Children learn more from what we do than what we say.
When they see you:
- Praying with gratitude
- Helping someone in need
- Forgiving others
- Being kind to strangers
- Reading the Bible
They learn that loving God and others is a way of life.
2. Make it part of daily life
Faith is not just for Sundays.
It is for every day.
Start each day with a simple prayer of thanks.
End each day by reflecting on how you showed love to others.
Talk about God's love throughout the day.
Make it natural, not forced.
3. Teach them to serve others
Love is not just a feeling.
It is an action.
Teach them to:
- Share their toys
- Help younger siblings
- Say kind words
- Include others in their games
- Give to those in need
When they serve others, they learn what love really means.
Remember this
You cannot force love.
You can only model it.
You can only create opportunities for it to grow.
You can only pray for it.
And trust that God will do the rest.
Because love is a gift from God.
And when we ask for it, He gives it freely.
