Help your children see God's glory!

"Help your children to see the supremacy of God. Help them to see the eternality of God, this One who is eternal, uncaused in His being. Help them to see the constancy of God, these attributes that are held in constant balance unchanging forever; the knowledge of a God who never has learned anything and who never forgets, who is the sum of all knowing; the wisdom of a God who is never confused and never perplexed; the authority of a God who has all authority so He needs never consult anyone about anything; the providence of God who governs all of His creatures and all of their actions; the power of God that stills storms, feeds multitudes, changes people; the purity of God, that He is one who is clean and sinless and has never conceived of or thought of anything wrong or correctable; the trustworthiness of a God who keeps His Word and can always be depended upon; the justice of a God who will bring all wickedness under His judgment so no one will ever get away with anything; the patience of a God who apart from his patient forbearance, none of us would ever be saved; the wrath of God who will one day avenge every beheading in Iraq and every wicked cruelty that was ever done to a child. . . the grace of a God who for reasons found in Him delights in grace; the love of God that surpasses knowledge; the gladness and joy of God in His own triune Being where He enjoys Himself forever because He is complete is His triune completeness.” --Tedd Tripp
