012 The What Matters

“I wonder what they do teach them at these schools.” – Professor Kirke, The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis

“There’s not much good singing unless you’ve got something good to sing about.” – Amy Grant

“Education without values, as useful as it is, seems rather to make man a more clever devil.” – C.S. Lewis, The Abolition of Man

What you are teaching your children, as simple as it sounds, matters. It’s not just about being with them, though that is enormously important. If I don’t teach my children how to have a relationship with God, then what is the point of homeschooling?

I wanted to share this as a reminder to all of us, in the craziness of getting ready for another school year, to stop. To thank God for the blessings He has given us in our children. Whether you homeschool or do some other type of education for your kids, we all love our kids and want to see them succeed. As cliched as it sounds, it does go by fast. So, treasure this time. Treasure your children. They are a gift.
