the little boy
today at work a mother walked in with her child in tow. immediately the first thing i heard out of her mouth was, "will you quit it? you're really driving me crazy today." she continued to yell at him and of course, the kid's response was not nice either. he was only about 10 years old.as i thought about this, i knew that God's plan for life here on earth doesn't look like that. parents blame their kids, but it's really a poor job on the parents part and that's why the boy was having an attitude with such disrespect. it's a parents responsibility to discipline their children as they should, to train them in the things of the Lord, and keep them in check with their attitude. even a 1yr old knows what it is to be selfish- but it's by discipline that that spirit is broken and good fruit abounds.
i'm broken for that little boy because he has had a bad image to mirror- his mother is by no means the role model that he should be following after. so i continue to pray for this generation- that the Lord would really do a work and we would see many turn to the ways of the Lord.

It breaks my heart that families have turned out the way they have. Christian parents don't even always do what they should. I always think that if Christian families have kids that turn out badly much less of a chance the world has without God. It makes mw strive everyday to have raise children that love God and others.
