PARENTING IN PROVERBS - CH 27
27:1-2 "Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring forth. Let another praise you, and not your own mouth; a stranger, and not your own lips."
Says it all, really.
27:15 "A constant dripping on a day of steady rain and a contentious woman are alike."
~Am I being contentious? Quit!
27:18 "He who tends the fig tree will eat its fruit, and he who cares for his master will be honored."
~Eventually we all enjoy the fruit of our "tending"....don't grow weary in the tending....
27:23 "Know well the condition of your flocks, and pay attention to your herds.."
~If it's godly to know the condition of our animals - how much more the condition of our children and their hearts? I must not be so focused on school, life, duties that I become unfamiliar with the condition of my children!
