Olsem Deuteronomy 6:6, 7 talem, olketa dadi and mami shud story long olketa pikinini abaotem God evriday. Iumi bae storyim fofala idea long Bible wea helpem finis staka thousand dadi and mami for teachim pikinini abaotem God.

1. Storyim wanem God wakem. Aposol Paul sei: “Nomata olketa man no savve lukim God, olketa wei bilong hem showaot klia start long taem wea hem wakem world kam kasem distaem. Olketa fit for luksavve hem God and for luksavve long paoa bilong hem wea stap for olowe.” (Romans 1:20) Mami and dadi savve helpem pikinini for savve God hem stap long wei for storyim creation bilong God, and helpem pikinini for lane abaotem God from wanem God wakem.

Jesus iusim datfala wei for teach taem hem teachim olketa disaepol bilong hem. Hem sei: “Lukluk gud long olketa bird. Olketa no wakem garden and harvestim kaikai. Olketa no keepim kaikai long eni foodsafe tu. Nomata olsem, Dadi bilong iufala long heven feedim olketa. Bat iufala important winim olketa bird!” (Matthew 6:26) Jesus mekhae long wei wea Jehovah kaen tumas and showimaot love. Hem helpem tu olketa disaepol for ting raonem hao God showimaot olketa wei hia long pipol.

King Solomon story abaotem wei wea God mekem olketa ants wise, and hem talem important samting wea iumi savve lanem from olketa smol creature hia. Hem sei: “Man wea lesy, iu go lukluk long olketa ants, and lukim olketa wei bilong hem mekem iu wise. Nomata hem no garem komanda, bigman and ruler, hem redyim kaikai bilong hem long taem bilong hot season and hem hipimap kaikai bilong hem long taem bilong harvest.” (Proverbs 6:6-8) Datwan teachim iumi hao hem important for markem olketa goal and for iusim strong bilong iumi for kasem olketa goal hia!

Dadi and mami savve followim gudfala wei for teach wea Jesus and Solomon iusim sapos olketa duim thrifala samting hia: (1) Askem olketa pikinini wanem kaen plant and animal nao olketa interest long hem. (2) Lane abaotem olketa animal and plant hia. (3) Helpem olketa pikinini for lane abaotem God long olketa samting wea God wakem.

2. Followim wei bilong Jesus for teach. Taem Jesus stap long earth, hem garem staka important samting for talem. Nomata olsem, hem iusim staka taem for askem olketa kwestin. Hem laekem tumas for savve long tingting and feeling bilong olketa wea hem teachim. (Matthew 17:24, 25; Mark 8:27-29) Olketa dadi and mami tu garem staka important samting for teachim long pikinini. Bat for teach gud, dadi and mami shud followim wei bilong Jesus, and encouragem pikinini for no hol bak for storyim feeling bilong hem.

Waswe sapos olketa pikinini noti or no kwiktaem for followim important samting wea dadi or mami teachim? Tingim wei wea Jesus teachim olketa aposol. Samfala taem olketa savve raoa and no hambol. Nomata olsem, Jesus gohed patient witim olketa and hem storyim moa why hem important for hambol. (Mark 9:33, 34; Luke 9:46-48; 22:24, 25) Olketa dadi and mami wea followim example bilong Jesus bae gohed patient for stretem olketa pikinini, and sapos olketa no followim wanem tufala teachim, tufala bae storyim moa datwan go kasem taem olketa minim gud.a

3. Showimaot gudfala example. Hem gud for olketa dadi and mami followim kaonsel wea aposol Paul talem long olketa Christian long Rome. Hem sei long olketa: “Nogud iu teachim nara pipol, batawea, iu no teachim iuseleva. Nogud iu sei olsem long narawan, “Iu no steal,” batawea, iu nao iu steal.”—Romans 2:21.

Datwan hem gudfala advaes bikos olketa pikinini savve lanem samting from wanem dadi and mami duim winim wanem tufala talem. Olketa dadi and mami wea duim wanem tufala talem staka taem savve garem pikinini wea followim wanem tufala teachim.

4. Teachim pikinini taem hem smol yet. Staka pipol tinghae long Timothy wea gogo witim Paul long missionary waka. (Acts 16:1, 2) Wanfala reason hem bikos “start kam from taem [hem] baby yet,” mami and granmami bilong Timothy teachim hem “olketa Holy Raeting.” Tufala helpem hem tu for readim olketa Scripture and ting raonem wanem olketa scripture storyim.—2 Timothy 1:5; 3:14, 15.
