TRAIN UP A CHILD

TRAIN UP A CHILD

A Poem by Miss Sharon
"

Teaching our children to know the way of faith. (Note the all caps representing Deity speaking)

"
TRAIN UP A CHILD

Teach them to love ME
Whatever you do.
I'LL walk beside them
And keep them in view.

When they are innocent...
Hearts open wide,
They make it easy
To walk by their side.

Children don't falter or
Question MY reign.
If they are ill...
They just give ME their pain.

Their sweet demeanor
And full-of-faith heart,
Help ME to know
They will not soon depart.

Watch and observe them
If you start to fall.
Their heart is filled
With the best faith of all.
***
Train up a child in the way he should go,
and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
Proverbs 22:6
