If you’re a wise parent, you’ll be looking for ways to conduct devotionals with your children that are natural to them; times that are meaningful and will make them want to learn more about God. Lining all the children up for an evening devo doesn’t work very well.

    A family I know has found one method that works great for them. As each child goes to bed, there is a gentle moment where a parent and a child share a short positive talk and an evening prayer. Some of the sweetest prayers I ever heard came from my own children during our gentle moments. It will build a super-strong relationship between you and each child. And it will also give them the presence of your love for them.

    So let’s make the rest of today work a little better. Look for and explore those gentle moments with your children.
