                                                                   What to Leave Children

The righteous man walks in his integrity; his children are blessed after him.
                                                                                   ~ Proverbs 20:7

  "If we walk before the Lord in integrity, we shall do more to bless our descendants than if we bequeathed them large estates. A father's holy life is a rich legacy for his sons.
  The upright man leaves his heirs his example, and this in itself is a mine of true wealth. How many men may trace their success in life to the example of their parents!
  Above all, a righteous father leaves his children his prayers and the blessing of a prayer-hearing God, and these make our offspring to be favored among the sons of men. God will save them even after we are dead.
  Our integrity may be God's means of saving our sons and daughters. If they see the truth of our religion proved by our lives, it may be that they will believe in Jesus for themselves. Lord, fulfill this word to my household!"
(By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
