Show Them the Way: Passing on our Faith through Teachable Moments

My blogging friend Annette over at In All You Do is hosting 30 Days of Bible and I have the privilege of being a guest writer for the series.

Here is an excerpt from my post over there today:

Passing on our Faith through Teachable Moments

“Wow, Mama! You know everything!” my five-year-old excitedly exclaimed after I was able to answer one of her many questions for the day. I have to admit it was a good feeling to be admired and appreciated. It’s nice to know that she has such confidence in me. However, setting ego aside, I also recognized it as a chance to direct her to the One Who really has all the answers. I told her that it might seem like I know a lot, but only God knows everything.

Our children reflect what we show them through our actions, not merely our words. They soak up the lessons around them, whether we are intentionally teaching them something or just showing them by example, for better or worse.
