Reply to the student bellows post…. “Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, The fruit of the womb is a reward." Psalm 127:3 from the reading of Deuteronomy God is advising parents to learn and teach the word of God to their kids and their kids' kids. Our father God wants us to worship him and him alone. He want us to have a faithful understanding of his word and to teach the word of God to the children of the world so they can be raised up in the word and be able to teach the word of God to their kids and grandchildren. "Train up a child in the way he should go: And when he is old, he will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6 Our father God wants each parent to have knowledge about the good book and teach the book to their kids. That there is only one God and we should hold him to the highest power our heart can. We suppose to go minister others so they will have an understanding about our father God so they also may go and minister the powerful word of God. Mothering includes the comfort of close bodily contact and the satisfaction of an innate need to cling (Papalia, Feldman pg. 128). The mother and father should be the protector and the foundation of the family to the child.
