RE: Should You Raise Your Child With Religion, Even If You Don’t Believe?

in #life8 years ago

I don't think you need to go to church to know God. My wife & I like to go but we skip out and just go to the beach or cottage for the weekend even when the kids were living with us. It was like skipping public school when I was a kid. Until my best friend &I were in the front page of the news paper. That's another story. Anyways if He is in you your family will see it come out (God's love). But I just gone to church with the kids to set an example. My one daughter really confronted me & let me now that she wanted no part of church. I was talking to her today & she at 27yrs old was telling me that she doesn't want her brother inviting her downtown were he is doing mission work trying to build a community. Mainly helping the lower class that I want no part of my daughter would say. My wife's side are all church goers mostly.My side I'm the only one. My family has shunned me & put me in my place about the subject. So I am wise at how to handle the subject. I listen more when they talk. You know the last time I went to see my daughter I told her I would like to pray a blessing over you. She liked that & said please do. So I layed my hand on her shoulder & prayed my heart into her and future. Then told her I was proud to be her father. She just left her boyfriend and moved into a bachular apt.
