“We have a responsibility to influence the people in our lives to be the best possible people they can be: ‘Therefore encourage one another and build each other up"(1 Thessalonians 5: 11). —Henry Cloud, John Townsend
Let no Christian parent fall into the delusion that Sunday school is intended to ease them of their personal duties. The first and most natural condition of things is for Christian parents to train up their own children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
~C.H. Spurgeon~
Righteousness: too easy or too hard? I guess it depends on your perspective. Certainly, it's too hard if we try and pursue it based on our own effort. But the truly hard part is surrendering our will completely and placing our life in the hands of the Lord. Acknowledging that we can't "work" our way into heaven by being a good person is one of the great keys to receiving the gift of eternal life. We all need a Savior.

Before you can teach children, you must get the silver key of kindness to unlock their hearts, and so secure their attention.
~C.H. Spurgeon~
We can never afford to forget that we teach our children to call God, Father, and the only conception of fatherhood that they can have is the conception which we give them. Human fatherhood should be molded and modeled on the pattern of the fatherhood of God. ~William Barclay~
Whether called to be a king or a courtyard servant, whatever position we find ourselves in, if we ask God to fulfill His purposes, we will be satisfied. In the will of the Lord, satisfaction, service, and significance are waiting for us.
