Parenting the Christian way

I have never been a parent and am still happily single. But today my church deacon preached on parenting the Christian way so that the kids will grow up to fear the Lord. Christian parents need to set a good example and not only tell their kids or nag at them. Children learn more by watching their parents and 'Actions speak louder than Words'. It was a good topic to discuss and if I ever have a kid, I will make sure he or she will have reverence for Jesus. This is the most important thing to do which is to bring up a child in the ways of the Lord. And one of the hardest jobs in the world is being a parent. Your whole outlook will change and you no longer think of yourself anymore but your kids come into the picture. It also involves finances to be put aside for their upbringing and education. This is a mammoth task.
