Be the man pt.1

I know what your immediate reaction to that statement was, “but nate, you are already the man!” :o )

The other day during my quiet time the Lord really got me with this verse in Deuteronomy 6:5-9:

Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the door frames of your houses and on your gates.

So, that what I’m doing. Being that they are 4 and 2 it gets a little challenging to hold their attention but I’m starting to put it in practice. That way when they are older it’s just part of what we do. I hope to start adding post on ways that I’m trying to implement this into my home on here…so keep me accountable!
