WORSHIP NEEDED IN CHILDREN

WORSHIP NEEDED IN CHILDREN The disciplined ritual of worship has collateral personal benefits in developing children whose lack produces in many of them baleful personal collateral consequences. Teach children to love, pray, study, to respect, praise God, as an ideal, not as an idol, and to apply these teachings rigorously to themselves, to their families, loved ones, to all. They must also be taught that not all things are good things, even if they may seem to be so, but are evil, hurtful, deadly. Discernment is thus one of many lessons to learn, learning being a lifelong discipline ritual needed to protect oneself. As a result a well-rounded person will emerge from youth's cocoon capable of negotiating life's snares.
