Fathers be good to your daughtersDaughters will love like you doGirls become lovers who turn into mothersSo mothers be good to your daughters too

John Mayer, “Daughters”

O my people, hear my teaching; listen to the words of my mouth. I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter hidden things, things from of old - what we have heard and known, what our fathers have told us. We will not hide them from their children; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done.

PSALM 78:1-7

He decreed statutes for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which he commanded our forefathers to teach their children, so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children. Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget his deeds but would keep his commands.

PSALM 78:1-7

So the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children. Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget his deeds but would keep his commands.

PSALM 78:6-7

Parents, whether you believe it or not, you are

Peyton was studying me! Archie Manning

I don’t compete with my father. I learn from him.

Peyton Manning

His (Jesus) divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.

2 PETER 1:3

I have been reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also.

2 TIMOTHY 1:5

Therefore I urge you to imitate me.

CORINTHIANS 4:16

Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.

I CORINTHIANS 11:1

For you yourselves know how you ought to follow our example. We were not idle when we were with you, nor did we eat anyone’s food without paying for it. On the contrary, we worked night and day, labouring and toiling so that we would not be a burden to any of you. We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help, but in order to make ourselves a model for you to follow.

2 THESSALONIANS 3:7-9

I plead with you, brothers, become like me.

GALATIANS 4:12

We can’t avoid leaving ruts. To have a child is to influence another life, perhaps even several generations. The only question is in what direction will our ruts carry our children?

Gary Thomas, Sacred Parenti ng, 177.

For you know that we dealt with each of you as a father deals with his own children, encouraging, comforting, and urging you to live lives worthy of God, who calls you into his kingdom and glory.

I THESSALONIANS 2:11-12
