A MODEL FOR CHILDREN IN FAMILY
Can children learn from Jesus? yes, they can! By this own example, Jesus showed how children should obey their parent. “Just as the father taught me,” he said, “I speak.” He added: “ I always do the thing pleasing to him .” (John 8:28, 29) Jesus was obedient to his evenly father, and the bible tells children to obey their parents. (Ephesians 6:1-3) Although Jesus was a perfect child, he obeyed is human parent, Joseph and Mary, who were imperfect. That surely contributes to the happiness of every member of Jesus family! –Luke 2:4, 5, 51, 52.
Can children see ways that they can be more like Jesus and make their parent happy? True, young ones may some times find it difficult to obey their parents, but that is what God want children to do.(Proverb 1:8; 6:20) Jesus always obeyed is heavenly father, even under difficulties circumstances. Once, when it was God’s will that Jesus do something especially herd, Jesus said: “remove this cup(a certain requirement) from me.” Never the less, Jesus did what God asked, because he realize that is father knew best. (Luke 22:42) by learning to be obedient, children will make their parents and their heavenly father very happy .* -Proverb 23:22-25.
The devil tempted Jesus, and we can be sure that he will also tempt young ones to do what is wrong. (Mathew 4:1-10) Satan the devil uses peer pressure, will can be hard to resist. How vital it is, then, that children not keep company with wrongdoers! (1 Corinthians 15:33) Jacob’s daughter Dinah kept company with does who do not worship God, and this leads to a lot of trouble. (Genesis 34:1,2) think of how the family could be hurt if one of its members were to become involved in sexual immorality! –Proverb 17:21,25.
