Word Wednesday

Today is officially “Word Wednesday” otherwise known as “Hump Day.” We’ve made it half way through yet another week on the wonderful, exciting and bumpy road of motherhood. Therefore, some of us are looking for some encouraging words to make it through the rest of the week with Joy and Peace. At night before my son goes to bed, in addition to reading bible stories, I read him a passage out of Prayers That Avail Much, First Blessings for Your Child by Germaine Copeland. Mommies we have to keep our children prayed up and constantly put Gods Word in their hearts.

Yesterday’s passage read, “May the Lord impart to you a desire to do good to those who deserve it when it is in your power to act.” As Christian parents it is important that we teach our children to do good unto others. The Word tells us, “Do not withhold good from those who deserve it, when it is in your power to act.” (Proverbs 3:27). This holds true not only for our children, but for us as well. How many times have you seen someone in need that you could help, but you just didn’t feel like doing so? Sometimes we have to put our carnal nature aside and have a willingness to help our fellow brothers and sisters even when we don’t want to. Our children must too understand that when they are in a position to help their fellow brethren that they should do so.

In my study, I read past Proverbs 3:27 to the next verse, “Do not say to your neighbor, "Come back later; I'll give it tomorrow"— when you now have it with you. (Proverbs 3:28). After reading this verse I realized that I have been guilty of doing just what the Word says not to do. It is time for us to make the necessary efforts to do good to those who deserve it when it is in our power to act. Let’s stop making excuses and truly live out the living Word of God!
