“Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you” Ex 20:12
I would like to share about what is happening in my life right now with you ladies. And also so you can understand what monumental changes my HH Heavenly Husband has made in me and my family situation.
My younger brother contacted me to ask me ‘can my mom come live with us?’ As you know l am happily restored for the last 8 years.
The 1st thing l needed to do was run to my Beloved because l had a lot of feelings and there would be many changes that needed to be made in my home and with living space besides asking my EH permission.
After He gave me peace and assurance about my mom coming to stay l asked my EH and He has agreed and with a good heart too 🙌 This coming from a man that has not really wanted any interaction with my family… But l do believe it’s because l have changed as a wife in the way l treat my EH and his family.
The sad thing about my mom coming to stay with me is that it’s brought into the light the bad feelings of family members towards her. Both my sister’s contacting me to tell me all kinds of things about my mom.. 😕
I have come so far and learned so much so l was just agreeable with them but l refuse to do any of the things they suggested because l want to honor my mother. I went to go re-read this chapter Erin wrote about obedience to parents https://loveatlast.org/finding-the-abundant-life/chapter-13-if-you-love-me/
Now that l have more interaction with family members I’m practicing so many of the Wise Woman principles of being agreeable, having kindness on my tongue, winning without words.
But more than anything else I’m so grateful to have my Beloved HH to help me navigate thru this season of my life of taking care of my mom 🙏 Because without Him l would not have the kindness, patience, love or even the finances to have her live with my family and take care of her.
In our conversation EH and l agreed we would not take any money from my mom. When she lived with my brother and my niece the 3 of them each contributed to their living expenses but I’m blessed by my HH so she can enjoy the income she receives from her government pension.
I will have a lot more to share as this unfolds so l will share more as He leads me 🙏
Thank you for sharing!!! When we honor our parents He honors us!! I t will a blessing to your mom to be a direct witness of what our HH can do in our lives when we put Him first!!!
Yes Isabella I’m so glad that l can be a witness to my mom in how l live my life and in showing her love and kindness. I’m glad for the opportunity to share with her all the amazing things His done in my life ☺️
