PARENTAL ROLE

Parents should be very careful about how they speak TO and ABOUT their children.  Being a parent is an awesome responsibility.  God attaches authority to the parental role.  As parents, couples have authority over the lives of their children until they are old enough to lead their own lives. Because of this authority, the parents' words can greatly ENCOURAGE or DISCOURAGE a child.  The words of parents can HEAL or WOUND.

When a child has been emotionally wounded by a teacher or another child, the parent can be used by God to help the child recover quickly and to restore his or her confidence.  However, harsh words, or words that lack understanding, can deepen the wound even more.

When children make mistakes, which will occur thousands of times during the childhood years, parents need to know how to "train them up" (Prov. 22:6 KJV), how to bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord (Epf. 6:4 KJV).

It is very important that parents not make a child feel STUPID, or CLUMPSY, or like a FAILURE.  If they are not wise with their words, this can easily occur.

Children are fragile. To a certain degree, they are tender in their young years.  In the formative years, it is vital that parents help them feel secure and loved.  Today many parents have tremendous problems and pressures of their own that often they do not take the time to minister to their children concerning their challenges.  There is tendency to think, "that's just kid stuff, I have some real problems to attend to."

If you have children, when they are hurting, remember to speak "a word in season" to them, a word that will HEAL and ENCOURAGE them.

"I Do Not Know God. Does He care for me?"


Of course He cares!

He loves you before you know Him.



Why am I so sure?

Let me tell you my testimony ....

     When I was younger, I did not know God
     When difficulties and problems came my way, 
     I believed it was my fate
     When problems solved, 
     I thought I was lucky

     I had frozen shoulder & pain in my left arm for about a year.
     So painful that I could not move my arms forward or backward.
     Doctors gave me pain killers & told me to bear with it.
     I had to endure the pain as nothing much could be done. 
     I applied heat rub & pasted plasters to relieve the pain temporary.

     In the year 2004, on one fine evening
     God brought me into His presence of Jesus Heals Rally.
     Knowing nothing about spiritual healing,
     I fell on the floor when a prayer was said.
     I could feel heat in my left shoulders moving towards the fingers.
     

    When I got up from the floor,
     No more pain!
     I could freely move my left arm! 


      See, I was like you, did not know God
     but He still loves me unconditionally
     He healed me & brought me out of my difficulties
     He works in His own way behind the scene 
     All because He cares for you and me.
     
      
Be assured that God loves you and 
He cares for you even you do not know Him.
