The Young Ones are Impressionable

As parents, we need to help our children select their friends from as early as primary (elementary) school. This should not be done as a means to segregate, nor should we be training them to be pompous or selfish. This is early training for them to recognize good and bad traits in persons, so they can make the right choices.
Surely we do not want our children being influenced by other children who have been exposed to blue movies, drugs, serious abuse of all types or other antisocial behaviour.
We must encourage our children to become persons of integrity, to speak the truth (no matter the cost), to be honourable (their word must be good), to communicate well, to be leaders, to give their hearts to God, to be thinkers, to seek the truth, otherwise they will fall in the group which believes that Jesus Christ will return to this earth on the 21st May 2011, when Jesus Christ Himself does not know this. Matt.24:36 and Mark 13:32.
Our children must be taught how to be thrifty (to save from their allowances to buy gifts for instant), they must be taught how to be contented with little (in lack) and how to share with others in need. These instances will teach them to exercise their faith in God and to become over-comers.
We must teach our children not to be rude but rather that they should seek to make a positive difference in every situation, to be warriors for God! If we train our children properly, they will impact their peers positively. Our country and the world will benefit.
Father bless our children with good sharp minds. That they will use whatever you give them Lord, for the betterment of others and themselves in Jesus name, amen.
