You yourself must be an example to them by doing good deeds of every kind. Let everything you do reflect the integrity and seriousness of your teaching.
Titus 2:7 (NLT)

Paul is writing to Titus that he is to set an example by doing good works of every kind, showing integrity, sincerity, and honesty. We as grandparents are to be a good example to our grandchildren, reflecting integrity, sincerity,  and honesty by the way we live our lives.

 

Integrity is adhering to a code of values being trustworthy and genuine. Sincerity is to be honest, genuine, and authentic. Just as Paul instructed Titus to model a life of integrity, sincerity and genuineness, we should  teach our grandchildren these actions.

We are to do good deeds of every kind because we love God, desiring to demonstrate His love to others, not to look good.  The Bible, God’s Word is a good manual to teach us how to live and do good to others. God’s Word will always remain the same, yesterday, today and forever however, the world’s code of value changes.

Prayer

Lord, help me to be a godly example and model good deeds,
teaching my grandchildren to live lives of truth with integrity,
authenticity and seriousness.
Help me to give sound, wise and wholesome counsel and guidance,
encouraging them to demonstrate God’s love to others.
In Jesus Name.
