Prayers for your children

by bethj // August 22, 2013 // No Comments

Life After Homeschooling

Our Family’s Homeschooling Foundational Scriptures

“Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is one Lord! And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. Keep these words in your heart that I am telling you today. Do your best to teach them to your children. Talk about them when you sit in your house and when you walk on the road and when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as something special to see on your hand and on your forehead. Write them beside the door of your house and on your gates." ~ Deuteronomy 6:4-8, NLV
