The best gift to your child
Five-year-old Deepak used to sleep alone in his room. One day his father was with him at bedtime. Deepak wanted his father to tell him some stories, which he did.
After quite some time Deepak felt sleepy and told his father, “Now, Daddy, I have to say my prayers.” He knelt down beside his bed, joined his hands, raised his eyes to heaven and prayed, “now I lay down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep; if I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take.” This was his usual prayer, but that night he looked up at his Dad, then raised his eyes to heaven and prayed aloud, “Dear God, make me a great big good man, like my Daddy. Thank you God.” In a moment he was in bed and in five minutes he slept.
And then the father knelt by his son’s bedside and prayed “Dear Lord, make me a great big good man like my boy thinks I am.”
Every child holds a very high opinion about its parents. It is left to the parents to come up to that opinion. The best gift that parents can offer to their children is their own life’s example.
