Household security

-
Whoever trusts in the LORD shall be safe. – Proverbs 29:25

After the United States was attacked by terrorists on September 11, 2001, President Bush called on Congress to create a Department of Homeland Security. The job of this agency is to do everything possible to keep citizens safe.

Our individual households also need a plan for "homeland security" if we are to keep others from endangering our children. But in a world of easy access to harmful outside forces, how do we do that?

Here are some suggestions for household security:

1. Take charge of the media. Instead of allowing makers of TV programs, movies, and CDs to dictate what you watch and hear, use biblical guidelines to evaluate the language and morality of what your children see and what they listen to.

2. Check out their friends. The standards of your children’s friends may not match yours. Make your home a haven where their friends are welcome. It’ll help you get to know them.

3. Build shields. By teaching your children biblical principles and encouraging their faith, you’ll help them to be discerning and to build inner shields that will protect them from the dangers they face.

How good is your household security? – J. DAVID BRANON

Our children need a home where love

Provides security,

Where what is taught is not confused

By what they hear and see. – SPER


Read: Deuteronomy 6:4-9


The best safeguard for the younger generation is a good example by

the older generation.
