In all reality however, children are never too young to have a real relationship with the risen Lord. If we only observe his resurrection on Easter Sunday, we are missing the true meaning of Christianity.
There is only one way to help your children experience the truth. Teach them to pray. If they seek a relationship with Jesus, He will answer that prayer. Gently guide them toward the truth and help them understand what it means to walk with Jesus.
As they grow closer to Him, you will find your parenting job to be much easier. They will have a strength that goes far beyond what you can give them and have a chance to reach their full potential by being what they were created to be. Don’t let them miss out on a life with Christ.
