 Parent's
Love
 It’s
been said that to understand your parents’ love you must
raise children yourself. Parenting is sometimes
difficult work! If you truly love your children, you
will at times be at odds with them. Decisions made and
discipline administered in the interest of their own
welfare may not make everyone in the family happy.
Hold your ground. There is a reason why children are
not allowed to raise children. Experiences, both good
and bad, in the background of a parent equip them to
make the difficult calls. What if later you learn
you’re wrong? Apologize! Even the way you handle
personal misjudgments teaches your children. There are
no perfect parents and you’re not the first one to make
a mistake. But what if your unpopular decision turns
out to be the right one and because of you much more
permanent heartache and pain was avoided
Discipline your children;
you'll be glad you did” (Prov. 29:17a MSG). Showing
love for your children involves doing today what will
make a better tomorrow.
