What Can God Do
For My Kids?
First He can
save them. He can protect them. He can turn them
around. He can give them a purpose for their lives.
He can give them joy and peace. He can help them
resist temptations. He can give them a compass between
what's wrong and right. He can help them overcome
addictions. He can help clean up their language.
And when they fall down into the deepest holes imaginable,
He can miraculously reach down, pull them up and bring them
home to you safely again. God does miracles for kids
every single day.
Parents have a
rough road to hold in today's society. They need all the
help for their children they can get. Where better to
turn to for that help than to God? He knows where your
kids are at all times. He knows what's around the
corner, who's trying to mess with their lives, and what it
takes to keep them safe from harm's way. God sees
things that we simply can't see. And when young people
and their parents are praying to Him asking for His guidance
and protection, God listens and pays attention.
Nothing is more
precious to Jesus than young children. The sooner they
get to know Jesus, understand what He and the heavenly
Father have to offer them, and learn to follow Jesus, the
better it's going to be for everyone.
How do you do that? You show them by example.
You get involved in a good church. You get them
involved in the church's youth ministry program. You
show them by example how important God is to your own life.
At LordsWay
Baptist Church, we have an active youth and student
ministries program. Our IGNITE program is
designed to keep the fire lit in our kids for God -- to let
them know that God is very, very real and has a special
purpose and direction for their lives.
Every Wednesday night we have our IGNITE YOUTH AND
STUDENT MINISTRIES
service at 6:30 PM. Once a month, we also have a special IT'S
SATURDAY IGNITE LIVE! program. Then every Sunday,
we have our Sunday School and Worship time with the youth.
In between those services, we also go bowling, skating,
attend special concerts, have parties, lock-ins, progressive
dinners, and all sorts of other things for relaxation and
fun. In addition, we go on retreats, hold Youth
Rallies and once a year, hold special week-long Youth
Revivals.
If your kids are
hanging around with the wrong kids, maybe they need to be
hanging around with our kids, so they can learn to live a
better life with their God and personal Savior! We'll
even come and get them, and then return them home to you
safely after services. But when you can, come with them too.
You're always welcome, and it'll show your kids that what
they do with their everyday lives really matters to you,
too. Sometimes kids don't see that. They feel
like they're totally on their own.
We're not about entertaining kids, although kids have a
blast with us. We're more about showing them a
happier, better, safer lifestyle that will take them where
they want to be in their lives -- instead of down the road
to self-destruction!
God can do miraculous things for your kids!!! He
really can! |
