YOUR PERSONAL QUIET TIMEIf I don't make this a priority now, why should my kids listen to me in 5 or 10 years when I'm encouraging them to have a quiet time? They need to see, day in, day out, my dependence on the holy word of God. By no means am I legalistic about
this, but I try to use the FIRST discretionary time I have each day for time with the Lord. I want my kids to see how important my relationship with Christ is, and so, they often get told to "hang on and find something to do for a few minutes" while I wrap up my time with God. They see me treasuring His word, and they see me in prayer. Sometimes they join in, or want to get their Bibles and sit up next to me on the couch. I don't heap guilt on myself if I don't always accomplish it, but I do try to use the first "free" time in the day to spend time studying the Word. |
