Parenting by Design Daily Devotional

DAY 20 OF 280

EXAMPLE

Be very mindful of the example you are setting for your kids. While it may be OK with God for you to have an expensive car or expansive wardrobe, what do your kids, who are less mature, see? They may see someone indulging himself or herself with the world's idea of treasure. Consider the lesson you may be indirectly teaching your children and then make the decision to buy or not. Are you building up or tearing down? Your kids are developing a value system by watching you.

Everything you acquire is an example of your real value system to your children. Where your treasure is, there your heart will be.

About this Plan

Parenting by Design Daily Devotional

The purpose of this devotional is to see what God's Word has to say about the parenting challenges every parent faces. Each day includes a passage of Scripture and an application of that passage to the trials and triumphs of leading families to maturity in Christ. The devotionals are created by Parenting by Design, a Fort Worth ministry devoted to teaching parents to lead their children the way God lead His children.
