All the leaves are falling!

Family of 5 working on The Spirit!
Along with a healthy breakfast our family has decided to start a family Bible study. We have always made it a priority to pray with them before bedtime, mealtimes and in the car on the way to school. In fact, my kids say their favorite prayer time is IN THE CAR! I grew up without an understanding of the relationship you could enjoy with God. I thought you had to be in a certain place at a certain time. My kids rattle off of who they want to pray for in the morning. So, their teachers and friends and even the cafeteria lady are prayed for by the kids on a daily basis. This makes my heart so glad.
My kids are young and they don't have a lot of homework yet so this should be easier to begin now instead of later, right? Pray that we don't let "stuff" get in the way of a GOOD THING. If anyone has any suggestions of a good way to begin for a family with kids ranging from 3 to 9 years old please let me know!

Comment by Valerie S on November 4, 2009 at 4:29pm - Rob's out the door by 6 a.m. so we're probably going to do it after homework/dinner/bath and before bed time. I want to get away from plopping on the couch and mentally checking out for the evening. We don't have the TV on during dinner so if we can just keep it off until the kids are ready for bed we can all plop down on the couch together and do the Bible study. It shouldn't be a huge ordeal since we have a DVR and we won't "miss" any shows.

When I was growing up we would have a Bible reading and prayer time each morning before breakfast. But that is difficult for many people today. It sounds like your kids go to bed around the same time, so maybe pausing the preparation for a small time of study together would work.
By the way, my favorite tree to watch change color are the ornamental pear. Red & yellow!

TRANSFORMATION KEYS to do the Plan of God in your life
Most of us have learned how to survive against the devil and the flesh to the degree that we have made up our minds that we are going to stay saved and serve God no matter what comes our way. The problem is that, even though we determine to stay saved, at times we still allow the devil to put a ceiling on what we will or will not DO FOR God. Or, for that matter, a ceiling on what we will or will not RECEIVE FROM God.
