"And you, my son Solomon, acknowledge the God of your father, and serve him with wholehearted devotion and with a willing mind, for the LORD searches every heart and understands every desire and every thought. If you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will reject you forever. Consider now, for the LORD has chosen you to build a house as the sanctuary. Be strong and do the work."
1 Chronicles 28:9-10

King David gave his son Solomon principles to guide him through his life. These same ideas are principles all followers of Jesus Christ should live by and teach their children:
1. Get to know God personally.
2. Learn God's commands and discover what he wants you to do.
3. Worship God with wholehearted devotion.
4. Serve God with a willing heart and mind.
5. Be faithful.
6. Don't be discouraged.
