With All Your Strength

 

"Israel, remember this! The LORD – and the LORD alone – is our God. Love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. Never forget these commands that I am giving you today. Teach them to your children. Repeat them when you are at home and when your are away, when you are resting and when you are working. Tie them on your arms and wear them on your foreheads as a reminder. Write them on the door-posts of your houses and on your gates.

Deuteronomy 6:4-9

After America was attacked on September 11, 2001, the President set up a Department of Homeland Security to protect us. We should do the same in our own homes, by watching what our children watch on TV, and finding out who their friends are. We need to build shields to protect our children. Teach them biblical principles and encourage their faith. Help them to discern things that are right which will allow them to build inner shields that will protect them from the dangers the will face.

 

The best safeguard for the younger generation

is a good example by the older generation.
