A Child needs unconditional love and discipline
by boatrocker Gilmore Children are given to parents for them to train and develop to become God's precious jewels. What is meant to be a loving relationship where tender embraces occur-most have become family duels. What happened to the days when child rearing was the actions of parents and scripture on one accord? Who has changed the commandment given by God to raise our children with love and admonition of the Lord? Parents who take responsiblity of the their children's actions are really smart. They know God's promise, if they train their child in the way they should go , they won't depart. Unconditional love for the child is the principal thing- this is what the parent is commanded to do in every situition. A child who has to earn his love will be handicapped with insecurities, falling into depression, due to a love starvation. After unconditional love is given, discipline of a child must soon follow, to insure that in Heaven the child will forever dwell. The rules and consequences to positive or negative behavior, a child must know or he will be at risk of going to Hell. To say you love a child, and refuse to do whatever it takes to correct bad behavior, one becomes a liar. How can love be demonstrated when a child is left to walk a crooked path that leads him to the Devil's fire? To say you love a child and only discipline them without building a loving relationship, that parent is in great error. For anger will fuel this child because of inner frustrations, he would become a great terror. Let us begin today to give our children a healthy balance of love and discipline so they can survive and thrive. Let us not be accused of being unfit parents before God for the unconditional love and discipline that we have deprived.
