Taking Care Of Your Parents - Part 4

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Home feels like wildfire is ravaging through it. You are always at loggerheads with our parents and the house can’t seem to contain all of you.

Quick questions for you-

How many of these bush-fires are you causing?

How many rules did you break?

What could be happening now if you had just listened and obeyed the instructions of your parents?

It takes two to tango and a coin definitely has two sides. Don’t totally blame them for the heat in the house. They couldn’t have decided to make the house uncomfortable for you. You think they are because you are not having your way, you want your parents to be fine with your behavior and just keep quiet.

Check yourself very well and see where you did wrong. Find your faults, make amends, and see if the temperature won’t go down at home. See if the house won’t be large enough for everyone, Including you.

Prov. 2:1 “my child, you must follow and treasure my teachings and instructions.” CEVUK.

Be the peace you want to see at home.

Finally, remember God’s command about obeying your parents and the benefits of doing so. Take it to heart and practice it.

“Do not deceive yourselves by just listening to his word; instead, put it into practice.” James 1:22 GNT

God bless you richly as you honor your parents. Amen.

Prayer:
Father, help me to scrutinize my ways and make changes in all the areas I need to. Help me.be the peace I want to see and enjoy at home, in Jesus name. Amen.

Action point:
Scrutinize your words, actions, thoughts today, and see where your faults lie. When you find them, speak about them to your parents and ask for their help.

Declaration:
My children are well behaved. They do not make the home uncomfortable for anyone. They do not set the home on fire by their actions and inactions.
