From a mom to her daughter...

HERE BELOW IS A BEAUTIFUL E-MAIL I RECEIVED. PASS IT ON TO ANYONE WITH AGED PARENTS.

~FROM MOM TO DAUGHTER~

 

 

 

 

 

 

God has gifted us with our kids...

♥Children are a gift...from God... 

He entrusted them to us.... 

♥There are angels assigned to watch over little children. 

**Matthew 18: 10 "See that you do not look down on one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven." 

♥And these angels always watch the Father's face. 

♥So we need to value our kids, each of them are special in God's eyes. 

♥Let kids not be aborted or ignored. 

♥God cares for a child, right when it's formed in it's mothers womb. 

So..Tall or short..

Dark or fair...

Fat or thin...

Perfect or imperfect...

Kids are a blessing!

So they are precious! 

(God's working on each of our kids and each of us His children so that the day we see Him we will be like Him!)

" Train up a child in the way he should go:
and when he is old, he will not depart from it." (Proverbs 22:6)

Be blessed..

Family relationships matters to God!

★ Adam and Eve lived in a home called the 

'Garden of Eden'. God blessed them and said to 

them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the 

earth and subdue it" (Genesis 1:28). 

Abba Father enjoyed a daily fellowship with Adam

 and Eve; He loved to walk and talk with 

them. 

★God is the beginner of marriage, children,

 family and home. Children are a gift to us from 

God. But with fall of man he had lost that 

fellowship with God and family relationships got

 strained. Respect for the aged was lost
.

★ But Jesus Christ came to restore the hearts of

 fathers to children and children to fathers and also

 turn hearts to Abba Father.

★Let's honor the Lord our God with all our hearts

and also respect the aged in our midst
.
•*¨*✿Job 12:12 " Wisdom is with aged men, And

 with length of days, understanding."

Let's honor them
.
•*¨*✿Leviticus 19:32 ‘You shall 

rise before the gray headed and honor the presence

 of an old man, and fear your God: I am the 

LORD."

★ Let's not forsake our parents and grand

-parents when they our old. There is a God who

 will never let us down even when we are old.

•*¨*✿Isaiah 46:4 " Even to your old age, I am He

, And even to gray hairs I will carry you!I have

 made, and I will bear; Even I will carry, and will

 deliver you."

★Abba Father wants to restore all vital

 relationships, but is a lot concerned about the

 turning of a childrens heart to fathers and fathers

 hearts to children
. 
★He wants to enjoy fellowship with His children on

 earth, like the one He enjoyed with Adam and Eve

 and also likes earthy parents and children have a

 turning of hearts..

•*¨*✿Malachi 4: 5 says, "See, I will send you the

 prophet Elijah before that great and dreadful day of

 the LORD comes. He will turn the hearts of the

 fathers to their children, and the hearts of the 

children to their fathers; or else I will come and

 strike the land with a curse".

God bless,

Spend quality time with parents, elders and grand-parents

Hi..

Life is busy but let's not miss out quality time with our moms, dads, grand parents. They won't be around forever.

Be blessed,

Julia

**********************

Too often we don't realize 

What we have until it is gone. 

Too often we wait too late to say 

"I'm sorry - I was wrong." 

Sometimes it seems we hurt the ones 

We hold dearest to our hearts; 

And we allow foolish things 

To tear our lives apart. 

Far too many times we let 

Unimportant things into our minds; 

And then it's usually too late 

To see what made us blind. 

So be sure that you let people know 

How much they mean to you. 

Take the time to say the words 

Before your time is through. 

Be sure that you appreciate 

Everything you've got; 

And be thankful for the little things 

in life that mean a lot.

(Poet: Unknown)

Stay connected and in touch...

Our mom/dad/parents may be living far way but we sure can call them daily once or as often as we can just to find our how they are doing and  if we live close by visit them whenever we can and run some errands for them.

They took care of us as children and now in their old age  they just need to know they are loved and cared for!

They may have all the comforts but still long to hear the voice of their children and grand children.
My mom lives far away but waits for my call daily. 
Every time we cook something special at home or there is a celebration at home, I always miss my mom, who lives in South India. Would love to share a meal with her more often and make her a part of our celebrations and only wish she lived close by....
Everyday when I call her she'll be excited and say.."Julia....!".
Distance makes it impossible to see mom often, but I'm glad we can talk daily!
Thank God for the mobiles/telephone etc!!
Be blessed 
Julia

~Message From A Mom To Her Child~

(Author unknown)

I gave you life, but cannot live it for you.

I can give you directions, but I cannot be there to lead you.

I can take you to church, but I cannot make you believe.

I can buy you beautiful clothes,but I cannot make you beautiful inside.

I can give you love, but I cannot force it upon you.

I can teach you to share, but I cannot make you unselfish.

I can teach you respect, but I cannot force you to show honor.

I can advise you about friends, but cannot choose them for you.

I can advise you about sex, but I cannot keep you pure.

I can tell you about alcohol & drugs,but I cannot say "no" for you.

I can tell you about lofty goals, but I cannot achieve them for you.

I can teach you about kindness, but I cannot force you to be gracious.

I can pray for you, but I cannot make you walk with God.

I can tell you how to live, but I cannot give you eternal life.

I can love you with unconditional love all of my life.... and I will.

MOTHERHOOD~A Glorious Career~(Author unknown)

A woman, renewing her driver's license at the County Clerk's office,
was asked by the woman recorder to state her occupation...
She hesitated, uncertain how to classify herself....
'What I mean is, ' explained the recorder,
'do you have a job or are you just a ...?'
"Of course I have a job," snapped the woman....
"I'm a Mom......"
'We don't list 'Mom' as an occupation, 'housewife' covers it,'
Said the recorder emphatically....
I forgot all about her story until one day I found myself in the same situation, this time at our own Town Hall...
The Clerk was obviously a career woman, poised,
efficient, and possessed of a high sounding title like,
'Official Interrogator' or 'Town Registrar.....
'What is your occupation?' she probed.....
What made me say it? I do not know....
The words simply popped out.....
"I'm a Research Associate in the field of
Child Development and Human Relations."
The clerk paused, ball-point pen frozen in midair and
looked up as though she had not heard right....
I repeated the title slowly emphasizing the most significant words.....
Then I stared with wonder as my pronouncement was written, in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire.....

'Might I ask,' said the clerk with new interest,
'just what you do in your field?'
Coolly, without any trace of fluster in my voice,
I heard myself reply,
"I have a continuing program of research,
(what mother doesn't) In the laboratory and in the field, (normally I would have said indoors and out)....
I'm working for my Masters, (first the Lord and then the whole family) and already have four credits (all daughters). Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities,
(any mother care to disagree?) and I often work 14 hours a day, (24 is more like it)....
But the job is more challenging than most run-of-the-mill careers and the rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money."
There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk's voice as she
completed the form, stood up, and personally ushered me to the door....
As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up by my glamorous new career,
I was greeted by my lab assistants -- ages 13, 7, and 3. Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model, (a 6 month old baby) in the child development program, testing out a new vocal pattern....
I felt I had scored a beat on bureaucracy!
And I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable to mankind than 'just another Mom.....'

"Motherhood"~ What a glorious career! 
Especially when there's a title on the  door....

Does this make grandmothers 'Senior Research associates in the field of Child Development and Human Relations'? 
And great grandmothers 'Executive Senior Research Associates'?
I think so!
I also think it makes Aunts 'Associate Research Assistants'.
