Respect in the Home
“Cursed is the one who treats his father or his mother with contempt.”
Deuteronomy 27:16a
The problem of disrespect in the home is not a new one. The
Bible is filled with Scriptures regarding the issue of respect. God wants peace
in the home and this comes by teaching respect. Teaching your children respect
starts with the husband and wife respecting each other.
How can children respect their parents if the parents don’t
respect each other? Begin by being an example in your home. Then, take your
children through the Scriptures that teach about respecting one another and
respecting parental authority. And remember, start teaching when they are
young!
What are some practical ways to show respect to one another?
Thought for the Day: Be an example.
Respect one another and respect your kids.
