1 Samuel 1:28 ““Therefore I also have lent him to the LORD; as long as he lives he shall be lent to the LORD.” So they worshiped the LORD there.”
I am a father I have 4 children and with each child, my wife and I, following the example of Hannah, placed each child in the hands of God. We believed they belonged to Him. Then knowing they belonged to God we trained them to know God and to follow the teachings of Scripture on how to behave.
As they grew we also believed we were training them to be used by the Lord. Being guided by Judges 13:12 we sought to ask what Manoah asked when he asked the Lord about Samson, “What will be the boy’s rule of life, and his work?
We also wanted to be like Zebedee who when Jesus called his sons to follow Him Zebedee let them go. (Matthew 4:21 Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James [the son] of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them, 22 and immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.)
Have you followed the example of Hannah and placed your children in God’s hands for His use?
Continue Strong dedicating ourselves and our children to the Lord,
And Remember to Date the Word
