YOUR CHILD'S HOLISTIC BEAUTY

We are all very conscious of our children's physical appearance and are happy when they look good and radiant; but what about their spiritual appearance?

We spend a lot on nutritious food and drinks for our children but do we feed their souls in like manner?

Your child, just like you, is made up of the spirit, soul and body. Each of these components need to be sustained and nourished for it to thrive successfully and survive.

The spirit is the real man. The soul which consists of the mind controls the body. These two inhabits the body which we can also refer to as the container.

A ready illustration is a bottle of an expensive luxury perfume. The most prized and precious component of that product in its entirety is the liquid perfume itself contained in the bottle. The bottle has its own value but it is nothing compared to that of the liquid perfume harboured within. The soul and spirit is the liquid perfume,  the body is the bottle.

It is important to help your child keep his or her body attractive and fit. The body performs a very important task of harbouring the priceless elements that make up a man. However, we must not in a bid to take care of the container forget to also keep watch over the content.

Intentionally feed your child's spirit and soul with the food it takes, which is the word of God. Spend quality time with your children. Teach them the Word. Invest in Christian children materials such as Christian story books, picture charts, Bible suited for your child's age, Christian cartoons and videos etc. 

Be intentional about inculcating Godly values in them. Train up your child in the way he should go and when he grows up, he will not depart from it.

Strive to keep your child healthy in spirit, soul and body.
