Family

A Real Inheritance

"Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord."
Psalm 127:3

Reflection

Children are not property, they are a gift lent by God. That changes how the children of a house should be treated.

Prayer

Father, thank You for calling me a gift. Amen!

Talk about it as a family

  1. What is an inheritance?
  2. Why are children a gift from God?
  3. How should children be treated?

5-minute activity

Parents tell the child about the day they arrived in the family and how they felt. Make a page together called "God's gift" with a photo or drawing of the child. Read Psalm 127:3.
