Podcast highlights:
- My parents were the quintessential back-in-the-day married couple with kids.
- Dad worked and “brought home the bacon”, and Mom ensured the “bacon” clothed, fed and sheltered all of five of us.
- Part of Mom’s household management style included special treats from time to time, which we loved.
- One of those treats brought joy, tears and a reflective lesson.
11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
20 My son, keep thy father’s commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
21 Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck.
22 When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.
BCUFam, I had forgotten about that story until a dear family member checked on me. God has a way of bringing things back to our remembrance in the natural so we can recall and apply it for our spiritual benefit and to His glory.
As I continue to reflect on the life of my late mother, I recognize that the lessons she taught—–both spoken and unspoken and they how continue to resonate with me today. Lord will, I plan to share some more of those lessons with you all as I chronicle her phenomenal life and impactful legacy. Amen? Amen! Let’s pray!
Eternal God, and amazing Savior as we come before You today, we thank You for reminding us to be obedient to You the first time, as we desire to be hearers AND doers of Your Word. Please forgive us, Lord for the times we made ignorant and/or disobedience choices. We know that sometimes we have to walk out the consequences of our actions, so we ask for Your continued mercy until our chastisement is over, and with Your grace, we will do better going forward! We thank You, and we praise You for this and for all things, Lord, in Jesus name, we bless You. Amen!
