LOVE CHANGES CHILDREN MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE

Children needs love all the time and I believe that it is what will make a child to realize the truth and follow it. Sometimes we parents wants to force our way of life into our children, but most of them don't buy the idea. The prefer to see things from their own way. The want to have a first hand experience. If we don't let them see it for themselves, then we will be lose them completely.

While I was growing too, my mother tried to explain so many things for me. I didn't understand what she was saying. She said it in different ways to aid my understanding, but all to no avail. She even when as far as using other people whom she thought will help me understand what she meant, yet I thought she was just blabbing. Today I can tell better. No one needs to tell me don't do this or that again. I have learnt my lessons from the numerous mistakes that I have made. Some gave me unforgettable Mark while some I have forgotten. All the same I have learnt the lessons that I needed to learn for life.

When I also got married and started having children of my own, I wanted to follow my mother's style, but it did not work, instead it brought alot of problems for the girl that stayed with me and myself. No matter how I tried to explain myself she told people that I was very wicked by forcing her to do things that she never wanted to do. God knows that I have good intentions, but I followed it the wrong way by forcing it on the girl. She later ran away from my house as went back to her parents given me all the bad names that she felt was good for me. I just allowed her to get her way, but it served as a very big lesson for me as my own children started growing up. Forcing my own way of life to my children will not help me that I told myself when I saw my two girls already doing all the things that I don't want them to do. I just prayed that God should help my heart so that I can tolerate them and show them the right way through love and endurance.

When my big girl grow up to twenty years, she started understanding what I was saying so she became the person who now advices her sister not to go against what I have told them not to do because she have done that before and now she knows that there is no gain there. Sometimes when I hear her talking to her younger sister on phone I will be thankful to God for helping her to understand life in such a short while.

I have already made my decisions that I would not allow any child of mine give me high blood pressure. No, no, no. The only one thing I own them is to tell them the truth and go inside my closet to pray for them to have understanding. Aside that I know I can't change anyone. And sincerely speaking, it has helped me alot to have peace even when I see my children going the wrong way. I know my part so I will go ahead and play it while I allow God to do his part by touching them to follow the right way.

In conclusion, it is said that what an elder seat down to see, even if a young child stands in the highest mountain he or she can't see it. With love they will come to understand the truth and we don't need to complete them to do the right thing anymore.
Thanks and God bless you for coming around.
