From The Pastor's Typewriter
How do we pay tribute to or honor our Mothers and Fathers? How do we take what has been given to us and offer it to the world in the most positive fashion? Do we act or speak irrationally in reaction to our world or do we patiently observe situations, considering all the facts so as to come to a reasonable solution, one that is peaceful and equitable for everyone?
Our parents are the first teachers in the ways of faith. We hope that they are the best of teachers by what they say and what they do. Our actions speak loudly and clearly of who our parents are – or were – and serve to give the world a clear demonstration of who raised us and how much grace we received from those entrusted to our own care.
Therefore, we should always remember that what we say and do is a direct result of who raised us. The values we display or the lack thereof will be a testament to those who were responsible for our early formation and our behavior long after they are gone and will be a living testimony to their success or, sadly, their failure as those who were entrusted with the responsibility of gifting our world, not dooming it. Honor thy Father and thy Mother.
