Children are a blessing from God. We love them, care for them, provide for them, pray for them and sacrifice for them. Even though there may be occasional challenges in these relationships, Scripture reminds us of the significant blessings of children upon our lives. Psalm 127:3 reminds us of that fact, “Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him.”
The story of the prodigal son in Luke 15 reminds us of the strong ties among family members no matter how different they are and how challenging the relationship that may exist with them. There is much evidence throughout history that frames the familiar quote, “blood is thicker than water.”
Because of these strong family ties, individuals have contacted me over the years with an objective to jointly benefit both their children and the kingdom with their estate at their passing and possibly even while living. Christians often have a deep passion for both their children and their Lord. Because their estate plans are their final testimony of their values and stewardship, they often want to leave a legacy to both. There are multiple ways to benefit both children and kingdom ministries through estate giving. As Christians, our estate plans often demonstrate the love that we have for our children and our Lord.
