The answer is: Offer a sacrifice for each child

Job 1:5

In the Book of Job, we see a devoted father who embodies deep compassion and devotion to his family. Every morning, after his sons would feast, Job would rise early to make burnt offerings for each one. This was not just a matter of ritual; it expressed Job’s desire to protect his children spiritually, in hopes that any inadvertent sins they may have committed would be forgiven by God. This simple act reveals much about Job's character—he wasn’t just a wealthy man; he was a caretaker with a profound sense of responsibility.

The fact that he offered a sacrifice 'for each child' underscores his individual love and attention to each of them. Still, it's fascinating to note that this practice was common in the ancient world, particularly among the patriarchs of biblical history. Abraham and Noah also built altars; it was a sign of maintaining a relationship with the Divine, one grounded in familial love and concern.

Jobs' acts remind us of how intertwined our spiritual lives are with our loved ones. Yet, interestingly, the art of sacrifice takes different forms today—in essence, it might mean being compassionate and supportive as a family.

It's also curious to consider any echoes of this practice later hearing Jesus’ teachings, illustrating how prayer and action can safeguard our families and communities across generations, extending the care Job had for his children into a broader perspective of collective well-being. In many ways, it’s about looking after people because they mean the world to us, just like Job did with his kids.
