I believe that we must understand
that youth live in the realm of "It won't happen to me" and
"short sightedness". They don't care to look far enough ahead to see
that their decisions have consequences that can be life long, even if it's the
decision to live indifferent toward their Creator. They usually don't plan to
live that way forever BUT getting in that rut can lead down a path of ruin and
devastation. They look back and wonder how they got there. They have to be
brought down to the level of NEED TO FOLLOW GOD'S PLAN! Some learn it earlier
than others. I am thankful that my baby daughter learned if very early by the
Lord allowing her to be overweight from grades 4-8. I felt so sorry for her but
I knew that her kind and loving spirit came because of her suffering! She is so
beautiful now and no longer suffers the weight issue BUT her kindness and love
for God abundantly shows to everyone! My other daughter took a walk like I
mentioned above and suffered a time however, God was gracious and her
consequences were short term. She now lives a responsible life and loves her
Lord and her family! Praise God! Sometimes parents need to allow their child to
"hit bottom" and face a few failures in order to be humbled and truly
SEED GOD! Quit rescuing your children as you are robbing them from important
spiritual life saving skills!
