CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Diligently”: adverb.

  1. in a way that is careful and uses a lot of effort.
  2. With conscientious and persistent effort or attention.

In Scripture, we are commanded to diligently teach our children about God and His Word.

Deuteronomy 6:4-7 “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.  You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children.”

I’ll suggest that the vast majority of the way we “teach” our children is not with words, but through our modeling.  What you think, say, and do will make a profound impression on what your sons and daughters will think, say, and do as they grow into maturity.

Does that mean we put on an act for them?  No. “Your kids learn how to love God by watching how you love God. While you are called to disciple your kids, the call is not to give them a fictitiously polished version of yourself.” (Hat tip to Matt Chandler).  But as HIMs, we must Get Right and put persistent effort or attention toward Living Right and Leading Right.  

Two chapters before the commandment to teach our children diligently, we are commanded to diligentlytake care of our own souls.

Deuteronomy 4:9 “Only take care, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things that your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life. Make them known to your children and your children’s children.”

“A man cannot give away what he himself does not possess” (Q Source 2.4, Positive Habit Transfer).
