Re: Do Your Kids Dress Like Bankers?
I would much rather my children and grandchildren dress like princes and princesses
than much of the MESS I see in the world.
We stand out if we are seperate. Some stand out for the world/Hollywood, etc. and
all that goes with worldly attire, activities, etc. I would rather mine stand
UP for JESUS!
Kings Kids SHOULD stand out, not only in attire but in conduct and a discip-lined lifestyle.
Most kids, old and young, run, including in church and that is not necessarily
the way they are in reality. Time will tell what they really are, as they grow.
As the tree is bent, so it will grow.
Recently a former minister, who had backslide, took his little son with him. The boy
started dressing like Daddy and it looked like his broken-hearted mother had lost. The
father divorced his precious wife and the son chose to live with Dad and his new wife.
But after a few years, the new wife got tired of some things, divorced him and now,
since he's lost his job, has come back near the place where his former wife lives. His
older married daughter and her husband has taken him in, until he can find a job.
The boy is now a teenager and has started to come back to church with his mother,
sister & husband and their children. And he's now wearing a suit and tie, and sits over
on the left side of the church, up front, where a number of young, clean-cut young men,
in suits and ties, are worshipping,God in Spirit and in Truth.They were trained up in the
way they SHOULD GO, and now, with the Spirit of Truth in their hearts and lives.
They do it because it has become a part of WHO they are. They don't do it because
it's the thing to do, BUT because of WHO/WHOSE they are!!
Yes, they might look like bankers, but they might also look like "King's kids", raised and
trained up in the family of The King of Kings.
We have a choice! Blend in with the world OR come out from among them,
and be ye seperate, saith the LORD, and touch not the unclean thing; and
I will receive you, and will be a Father unto you, and you shall be my sons
and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty!
No offense intended!
Thankfully,
