5 Things You Want Your Kids To Know

My First Tag!

Thanks LoveMyStarr at Scamp's Place for this meme - I am so excited! Participants are to list five things they want their kids to know before they "grow up". Then go to the original post that started it all and leave a link to your entry.

1. God loves you. He wants you. No matter what.

2. Jesus will forgive you. No matter what. All you have to do is ask.

3. I love you. No matter what.

4. Jesus is the only way, there is no other.

5. Do the right thing. Follow God's will for you life. It won't always be the easiest choice at the time, but it will always yield the best end results. It may not make you popular, loved, or liked here on earth - but your Abba Father will be looking down at you smiling, and there is nothing better.

I know this list is short, and perhaps I haven't put enough thought in it, maybe it doesn't say all the right things. But they are the things on the top of my mind, that I know will serve them well.

I tag the following:
Andrea at The Laughs Will Go On
Sgt and Mrs. Hub
Up the Hill Gang

If God loves everyone 'no matter what', why did he then write down so many rules to live by?
