Children are the joy of the family. They bring cuteness, brightness and innocence to the home.
In the Muslim world, the birth of a boy is greeted with a big celebration. The birth of a girl, however, is often downplayed and even regretted, because a Muslim woman’s world revolves only around her own home.
All children born into a Muslim home must be Muslim. They cannot choose anything different. The family, especially the father, is the one who instills the Islamic faith in the child from birth.
Of course every parent cultivates their beliefs in their kids, hoping to set them on the right track, but ultimately the choice rests with the individual. What a privilege to have the freedom to “choose” what to believe.
Prayer Request
Pray that the children come to know the spiritual truths which have been hidden. May the Holy Spirit reveal the truth to the children that they may know their Heavenly Father personally and know that Jesus is the Truth.
