Quiet Time: Why It Is Important To A Man

To be a good example to my family

I want to convince my children to have a personal time with the Lord.

Our older twins were baptized last year and I want them to understand what I have learned and experienced in my walk with the Lord.

I have read the Bible and prayed with them every night since they were very young. I pray that they will develop their own time with the Lord.

Philippians 3:17- Join with others in following my example, brothers, and take note of those who live according to the pattern we gave you.

Harry Chapin- I've long since retired, my son's moved away I called him up just the other day I said, "I'd like to see you if you don't mind" He said, "I'd love to, Dad, if I can find the time You see my new job's a hassle and kids have the flu But it's sure nice talking to you, Dad It's been sure nice talking to you" And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me He'd grown up just like me My boy was just like me And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon Little boy blue and the man on the moon When you comin' home son? I don't know when, but we'll get together then dad You know we'll have a good time then
