THOUGHT OF THE DAY

June 21,2020

Exodus 20:12 AMP
[12] “Honor (respect, obey, care for) your father and your mother, so that your days may be prolonged in the land the LORD your God gives you.

Proverbs 1:8-9 AMP
[8] My son, hear the instruction of your father, And do not reject the teaching of your mother. [9] For they are a garland of grace on your head, And chains and ornaments [of gold] around your neck.

Ephesians 6:2-3 AMP
[2] HONOR [esteem, value as precious] YOUR FATHER AND YOUR MOTHER [and be respectful to them]-this is the first commandment with a promise- [3] SO THAT IT MAY BE WELL WITH YOU, AND THAT YOU MAY HAVE A LONG LIFE ON THE EARTH.

My father Richard is 87 years old (if I recall correctly). My brother Harry and I have learned a lot from him. We have learned skills from him but most importantly we have learned life lessons. Of these life lessons we have learned about our Heavenly Father and Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ. We have the assurance that we WILL be in the family reunion in Heaven!
