Live in such a way that when you die you leave God in your will for your children.

About This Quote

Life is not about being perfect. It’s about being a great example. If you have a good relationship with God, you have the opportunity to teach your children how to make good choices when they are faced with difficult decisions in their lives. A person may be born into a situation where they can’t do much damage to anyone else, but their children will carry the consequences of their actions throughout their lives.

If you love God, you should want to teach your children what he wants them to know about him. He wants them to know that he loves them and that he lives in them (John 14:21).
