Here the heritage of and reward of children are set forth. In most homes plenty physically is being supplied. The state of the arts home is full of the latest in furniture and accessories. Food in abundance is supplied for the children to eat. Educational advantages are provided with good schools, rides to and from school, and dedicated teachers to teach them.
Recreational advantages are plentiful with all kinds of sports offered to both girls and boys.
In most homes parents work really hard to provide the physical necessities and luxuries the children want. Do parents have the time or inclination to read the Bible to the children and to tell them the great Bible stories that hold out to the children great lessons about God and Christ. Just sending the children to the church services is good but not enough. The example of your life is the important thing. Bringing the children up in the nurture and the admonition of the Lord is a huge task that too many are failing to accomplish.
