Take The Lead

Submitted By Lori Bova, Patriot Mom
Ladies,

The challenge this fall presented at the D6 conference was simple. It was to work with intentionality on becoming a Deuteronomy 6 family…the kind of family that God designed. Below is a quick acronym that will help keep us all on track.

Parental Responsibilities to LEAD from Deuteronomy 6:

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul and mind, keeping the commands upon your heart. Deut. 6:4-6

Educate your children diligently. Deut. 6:7a

Always talk about the commandments with your children. Deut. 6:7b

Display the commands on your hands, and before eyes, and on the doorposts and gates. Deut. 6:8-9

We are all so blessed to be part of a school that gives time back to our homes. We have been given more time to spend on practical everyday application of God’s truth. You can quickly see that Providence is designed to reinforce this D6 principle in our families. Take full advantage of this opportunity. This one chapter of the Bible is our key charge as parents. Take the LEAD mommas! Your kids need you.
