3 John 1:4 I have no greater joy than this, to hear that my children are walking in the truth. (NASB)

When we hear news from our kids after they go to college, what is the best news we can hear? We could hear so many good things, like, they have good grades, or that they have been healthy. The best news we can hear is that they are walking in the truth.

There are so many good things that people can say about us. I do believe that one of the most important things that people and God can say about us is that we are walking in the truth. I want you to see that there’s one truth. The truth that is the Gospel. We need to emphasize to our children that the most important thing they can do is to walk with God.
