Matthew 3:16-17 King James Version (KJV) 16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: 17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

Don't let the excitement of youth cause you to forget your Creator. Honor him in your youth before you grow old and say, "Life is not pleasant anymore." (NLT) -Ecclesiastes 12:1
We get to experience a lot of first time experiences in our younger days, such as first time riding a bike or driving a car. Yet over time, those firsts aren't as exciting and they become lackluster. We become less enthusiastic about life as time passes. A relationship with God is so valuable that we shouldn't put it off until later. A relationship with God enhances our firsts because we get to experience it with Him and He changes the way we perceive life. Whether you will be experiencing a first today or not, don't forget about your Creator and spend some time with Him.

"I have singled him [Abraham] out so that he will direct his sons and their families to keep the way of the LORD by doing what is right and just. Then I will do for Abraham all that I have promised." -Genesis 18:19
This verse is a good reminder of the importance of raising children according to the Lord's ways. As parents we are convicted to lead lives of integrity as examples for our children. As children we get to learn of the rich Bible stories to help us learn the right way to treat others. Everyone comes together, in their own unique way, to share in the goodness of the Lord. If you find your family has moved off track, it's never too late to reorient the family through watching a family movie featuring Biblical principles, attending church, or playing a Bible knowledge game together.
