Please Ponder, read and share.

Please ponder! A 1963 Harvard graduate said this "My one big mistake in life has been providing a trust fund for my five children. I'm very comfortable paying for an education for as long as they want to study in a reputable university. However, providing additional funds so they could have a lifestyle beyond what they have achieved on their own was a mistake". A leadership teacher, John Maxwell says "If you do everything for your children, what will they do for themselves?" By the time they finish university education, we have slaved and built houses for them, put car keys in their hands, bank rolled their wedding when they're getting married. What then will they do for themselves? In the course of doing these for them, some people develop hypertension, all sorts of illnesses. Some slump and die. Some steal to achieve these luxuries for their children. Inheritance goes beyond material things. Give them the right values, strong character and a revelatory knowledge of the power they carry as an extension of God, they will create water to sell in the dessert and sell sand to the Arabs to build mansions for themselves. Do something for your children to make them have a softer take off but do not take over their lives. Please... Ponder.
