Proverbs 3:1-4
Pro 3:1-4 ESV My son, do not forget my teaching, but let your heart keep my commandments, (2) for length of days and years of life and peace they will add to you. (3) Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you; bind them around your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart. (4) So you will find favor and good success in the sight of God and man.
There are two proverbs here. The first is his admonition to his children to remember and keep the teachings he is giving them because it is given in love for their benefit. The second is regarding love and faithfulness. Solomon regards love and faithfulness as precious things to cherish and in doing so you will be honored for it.
The second proverb reminds me to teach my children how precious love and faithfulness is to God and to us.
