DAILY PROVERB:
Proverbs 5:17- 20
Let them be only thine own, and not strangers’ with thee. Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth. Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love. And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?
OUTLOOK ON THE IN BOOK:
With so many broken homes today, we see the consequences of not waiting for true love before marriage. A multitude of children are born to parents who are neither married nor committed to each other. If we cannot commit to one another, how can we possibly believe we will be committed to raising a child together? This lack of forethought is not the child’s fault. These sweet, innocent miracles from God enter the world with their eyes wide open, expecting from the very first moment that someone here loves them, wants them, genuinely cares, and has considered their future. However, many children are born with little to no thought from the parents about the child’s needs or their future. Some children are regarded as problems rather than the blessings they truly are.
Finding the right person in life is crucial. It’s not just about physical attraction; spiritual compatibility matters as well. You should be attracted to a person, but you also need to understand who they are. For instance, if they follow one set of religious practices and you another, there could be a problem. Moreover, if you change your beliefs for someone else, it raises questions about the strength of your convictions or whether there were valid reasons for changing. Later in life, when raising a child, you may wonder which belief system is the right one to teach your child. Finding a life partner requires time, prayer, and patience but is incredibly worthwhile. Your commitment to your children will be unified, and your decisions to support them will align. Find the person God has chosen for you, and you’ll have found the one to help you raise the miracles God has placed in your home.
THE WORD WALKING IN ME:
Children are indeed a blessing in our homes. They deserve a loving mother and father who will support them on this lifelong journey. It’s truly a blessing to witness them grow up and serve God.
Do you see God’s little miracles and a
bother, or a blessing?
