As parents
and grandparents we teach our children the importance of knowing their home
phone number or cell phone number. We also teach them how to dial 911 in
case of an emergency. It's important for them to know how to find their house
and how to tell the police their address in case they get lost. There are
many things children need to learn about safety.
When I was
a very young child my mother taught me how to find my way home and what my
address was but she didn’t stop there. My mother knew the importance of my
knowing how to call and find my way to the Lord Jesus Christ during a crisis.
She continually would ask me what the Lord’s telephone number was. I think it
is important that we instill this into our children’s lives.
To this
very day if I find myself in a crisis I am reminded to call on the Lord. This
is the precious verse my mother repeatedly taught me so I would have access to
my Father, God, at all times.
Call unto me,
and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou
knowest not. (Jeremiah 33:3)
