Grace for your spirit May 6, 2013

Grace for your spirit
Honor you father and mother (which is the first commandment with a promise) so that is may be well with you, and that you may live long on the earth.  Ephesians 6:2-3

Mother's day is Sunday, May 12th, and this in honor your mother week.  Please notice that the command is not conditional, based on how good of a mother we have.  Next, there is no limitation on that honor.  Even if they have passed on, we can still honor them.  This is the fifth commandment of the ten commandments found in Exodus, and it is the first one connected to a promise.  The two promises with this commandment are that things may be well with us, and we will live long on the earth. Some people may choose rebellion not honoring their mother, but they are only hurting themselves.  Let's commit to God's will, and enjoy the benefits of keeping His commands.  Happy everyday.
