Founding Fathers

     I am sure that when the Founding Fathers gathered to "cuss and discuss" the Constitution there was adversity, much like we have today.  Let's face it, our Founding Fathers had flaws and family issues just like we do.  Even back then, as throughout the previous generations, there have been questions whether we are truly a Christian nation.  Our words and actions surely have not shown it. 
     In reading the Old Testament and God's instructions to Moses for the Israelites, God repeated time and time again for the people to "commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today.  Repeat them again and again to your children.  Talk about them when you are home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up.   Tie them to your hands and wear them on your foreheads as reminders.  Write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates." (Deuteronomy  6:7-9 NLT) 
     In order to be that committed to following God's commands and to be that dedicated to teaching them to our children, we must first follow His instructions found in verse 5, "You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength.."
     What are our words and actions showing our children today?
