We have learnt so much about our mind, our thoughts and our belief. We learnt that we are responsible for the choices we make based on what we are thinking about. What we believe is what we will do.
Do you know we can also teach our children about the importance of making good choices?
Set boundaries for the children to follow or adhere to. It will teach them that they will either receive "reward" or "punishment" as a result of their choice. For example, when our children are late for school or tuition, we can teach them that it was their choice to be late. They made the choice to sleep longer and not get up on time. Therefore, they will have to handle the consequences as a result of their choice.
Everyone of us has only one shot in life. So, we will choose to live a life of love in service to others or will we refuse to do our part because we feel we can't make a difference?
God is calling us to put on love and get to work. He works through people, and He is waiting for His people to arise and do something.
It's time we start helping others and reaching our to them with the love of God. To do that, we need to get ourselves off our mind, out of our prayers and out of our conversations. It's time to live life with a purpose and on purpose! The power of the Gospel is LOVE. Nothing else! Love is the highest form of spiritual warfare that we can do. ONE person - totally committed, dedicated and submitted to God makes hell tremble. So just think what a bunch of "ones" can do.
Romans 12:21 says Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. Just as Jesus went about doing good, we should too. That's walking in love! So let's stop complaining because of all the petty inconveniences that come our way and start really loving people.
Mothers are not perfect angels cut out with God's cookie cutter. Each one is special, unique and handmade.
They come in all sizes and shapes and dressed in all kinds of fashion. They can be anything from managing households to working in corporations. No matter what position she holds or whose wife she is, she is her children's source of life and love and security. To them it does not matter how she looks or acts or seem to others. She is "Mother", and that fact alone covers a multitude of imperfections and inadequacies. After all Mama doesn't have to be perfect; she only has to be here when I need her...
