Lockdown series

The kids are home. The kids are everywhere. The cases of discipline do not seem to end. The noise levels are high and so is the electricity bill. Many of our treasured glasses and sitting room paraphernalia have been broken and our anger can be weighed in kilograms!!


So how do we deal with these kids? How do we deal with our sons? How do we deal with these future Mwirians and prepare them for the future? Is there a magic wand?


The slow and steady solution starts with the words of Wise King Solomon


My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes;

Keep them in the midst of your heart; For they are life to those who find them,

And health to all their flesh. Keep your heart with all diligence. For out of it spring the issues of life. Put away from you a deceitful mouth, And put perverse lips far from you (_Proverbs 4:20-27_)


Keep teaching. Keep advising. Keep loving. Keep parenting. Keep mentoring. Keep the faith


Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.   _Proverbs 22:6 ESV
