This weekend I was straightening my son's room. Yes...I know he is old enough to clean his room...but I like to do it myself sometimes.
I was so excited by what I saw. Beside his bed...beside his video games, trading cards and candy...was his Bible and quiet time papers. Yes...at the age of 10...he is having a regular quiet time. He was encouraged to do this by the wonderful teachers at our new church. They offer creative incentives to help the children make having a quiet time with the Lord a habit.
I could not wait to tell the teachers the next day and to encourage them to keep doing what they are doing. I was so thrilled when my son came to me and asked where his church papers were. I would clean his room every day..for the rest of his life...if he promises to keep spending time with the Lord.
Would you like for your child to develop this habit? If so...visit the elementary school program here...cleaning their room is optional.
