"LONG AND BORING" OR "SHORT AND SIMPLE"?
It is vitally important to daily feed your children's spirits every day. It is as important as feeding their physical bodies. But how do you do it? The Bible doesn't tell us to have devotions that are "long and drawn out," or "boring and tedious."
Instead, what does it say? "For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little" (Isaiah 28:10).
The main thing is to be consistent. Every day. The Bible gives us the Morning and Evening Principle.
Keep it short. Ask questions. Get the children involved. Remind them that they are listening to God speak to them personally. At the end of devotions, ask the children what God spoke to them. You will be amazed at how God speaks to your children.
