Respect

In life we need to respect those not only our elders but also all those around us no matter their age. Many of us though, take respect for granted. Even the youngest of the children around you needs to be respected to because they deserve that. If we as adults or people who are meant to mentor those younger than us don’t show and accord them the respect they deserve then, the all the work we do to make those younger than us will be all in vain.
If all you do is to brag and boost about how successful you are, tell me, how will those looking up to you for advice know the right way to live with those around you. Who will teach the same kids to mentor the ones being born today?
If we don’t change our ways now, in a few years to come we will have a generation that knows no respect and again a more poorer one because when pride reigns, selfishness will always have roots in us.
God’s intention was to have a world with people who would be there for their neighbors always no matter the cost.
Am so sad today that money and power has brought about all the greed and ego in the human race. We need to live and survive the right way knowing that the world outside and around our lives is watching.
Dear God,
I know you have a purpose for each and everyone of us. Show me the way.
I need you
I seek you
Be my refuge
Be My Hope
Be my shelter
And to you my life I give.
Amen.
