What makes you happy? Not just a little happy, but really happy?

Maybe it’s when your team wins the championship, or when you get that work promotion, or when you slice into that perfectly cooked steak.

Those things are fine, but one of the greatest joys in life is seeing your son obediently follow the Lord. Third John 3:4 says, “I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.”

Walking in truth isn’t accidental. It takes time and energy—for you and for your son. Set the example by making God your greatest priority. When your son sees your passion to follow God, he’ll be much more likely to also walk in truth. And that will make you truly happy.
