Do you remember your son taking his first steps? No doubt you had already been holding his hand—and helping him take one step in front of the other.
But eventually, the day came where he climbed to a stand, and took those first few steps all by himself. You cheered with joy and excitement.
Even though your son is no longer a toddler, continue to train him to walk in righteousness. Psalm chapter 1 provides excellent teaching. Show your son how to delight in the Lord and not to pursue a path of the selfishness and pride.
Proverbs 22:6 says,
“Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.”
