Raising Children In God's Will (178) Chapter 3. Children's Growth And Guiding Section 3. How to Raise Children 2) Guiding the Children
② Dedication Needed - 2
We need people who can establish new ways. That's why God particularly favors with love those who struggle against evil. We need parents who would dedicate themselves to their children from infancy. We need great servants dedicated to children.
The Unification Church has been guiding you to become those very servants. While we look to the higher grounds, we must also be loved by those that are lowly.
It's why all blessed families must struggle. When we take pity on our own children, we should also remember to take pity on all other children. In this way, no one shall fail. (14-103)
Parents must be dedicated to posterity. They must be determined to leave blessings to their children. Such families will not fail. (32-115)
The main problem is how the blessed families, their children, and their children's children, all three generations, may live together with their teacher. Do you understand what I am saying?
Did you know that if you are a servant dedicated to three generations you will be the most meritorious in the eyes of heaven? In view of this, you must be dedicated to educating your children so that they learn these ideals. (51-271)
You must raise them straight, yes, straight. If you don't have enough to eat, pray to God.
If you get some bread as a result, that shows God's pity and power. Yes, that shows.
You must teach your children that heaven takes pity on you when strangers offer help which is least expected. (139-79)
