Children have been compared to “arrows in the hand of a mighty man.” ????????

[Bible Speaks]

Children have been compared to “arrows in the hand of a mighty man.” 

????????????????

An archer has the arrow in his bow for only a relatively short time. To hit the target, he must quickly let it go. 

????????????????

Likewise, parents have only a relatively short period of time to develop in their children heartfelt love for Jehovah. 

????????????????

After what seems to be just a few short years, the children grow up and leave home. Will they hit the target—that is, will the children continue to love and serve God after they leave home? 

????????????????

Numerous factors influence the answer. Much depends upon the skill of the parent, the environment in which the children are raised, and the way the ‘arrow,’ or child, responds to the training he or she receives. - Psalms 127:4.
