Solomon paints a wonderful picture of a godly home here, filled with love and life, and I\u2019m sure one where laughter prevailed as well!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It is the place of fathers to set the tone of the home with the children and the mother will gladly follow his lead if both base their lives on God\u2019s Word. This need not be all gloom and doom as some people imagine, after all God is the author of laughter and fun\u00a0 too. This should be based on\u00a0 wisdom, and parents should be sensitive to the needs of the children as each one is different. The main thing is to not be too tired to have fun times with the little ones or to be interested in what the older children are into.<\/p>\n

James tells us that if we feel we lack wisdom to be a good parent, we are to ask God for\u00a0 guidance and wisdom, and then God will show us what to do. The main thing is to take the time to concentrate on the family\u00a0 and their needs while you have them, as there will be plenty of time for one\u2019s own interests when the birds have flown the nest!<\/p>\n
