To Steal a Baby

Another baby stolen right out of the hospital. Praise God the child was found and returned to her mother. Is it possible some hospitals are too careless?

It helps me to remember that many of our precious babies are being stolen from the Church. Usually they are teenagers or pre-teens when the deed is done, but it is happening with regularity. They are stolen by the Enemy from careless parents whose priorities are not on the Spiritual growth of their little ones. He uses worthless TV and video games, ungodly music and movies, peer pressure and pride, and our brightest and best are losing the battle because we are focused as parents, leaders, teachers, and mentors on something of lesser importance.

It's a most serious problem. We must utilize Biblical solutions if we would avoid losing many of this generation of Youth.

You are so on target with this thought for the day. As parents we can teach and provide a loving home. We must also demonstrate to our children and teens a Godly home. Telling our kids they must do something, yet acting another way with our actions is confusing to the teen. They are also faced with issues and teachers at school who work against what we have taught them at home. Some teens are lucky enough to have loving Christian teachers who show them llove.

Parents must step up to the plate and take control. We must save our future leaders.
