If you love your father or mother more than you love me, you are not worthy of being mine; or if you love your son or daughter more than me, you are not worthy of being mine. Matthew 10:37 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
I believe from experience that grandchildren should also be on this list.
I have seen so many grandmothers, and being a former teacher I can tell you that most of the time it is the grandmothers not the grandfathers, that do the spoiling, treat their grandchildren like little god or goddesses. They spoil them when they are little then complain when the grow up feeling entitled.
We often love our relationships more than our God.
Do they spend as much time or money on Jesus, helping in Christian service or donating to Christian causes as the do their grandchildren?
Not likely.
Anything you put equal to or above God is your god. It will always disappoint you. Joseph- Anthony a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Please Jehovah Elyon (Genesis 14:18-20 The LORD Most High ) teach the foolish not to foolishly worship anything or anyone equal to much less above You. It breaks my heart to see such foolishness. I humbly request this in the name of He with whom there is no one above in my heart, Jesus Christ. Amen indeovi vas ( may you live with Jesus in Latin )

Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the Scriptures say: “I will take revenge; I will pay them back,” says the Lord. Romans 12:19 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
The next time you want revenge remember that is a path of satan that only leads to destruction of you get me, I get you back. Many innocent ones are hurt along the way.
It is better to take to God and leave it in His hands.
Ask Him to convict them unto repentance and if they refuse to bring the hammer down hard on them.
When satan taunts you with the memory of when someone did you wrong to you in the past and got away with it, to suck the joy our of your life, just remember that God is a God of justice and tell him that along with the fact that satan will get his just rewards as well.
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Hashopet (The Lord is the supreme Judge Isaiah 33:22 ) that You are a God who delivers the proper justice in the proper amount for the proper amount of time. I praise You in the name of The Supreme Judge, Jesus Christ. Amen
May you have a grateful heart towards He who has given so much to you. indeovi vas ( may you live with Jesus in Latin )

I am grateful for the wisdom God gave me that kale and swiss chard ( which we have plenty of ) are like multi- vitamins and to make it into tea for Snowball and mix it in with a little milk.
I am grateful for the wisdom God gave me to make Milk thistle and probiotics to clean Snowball’s liver because his medicine is very toxic
I am thankful that God has instructed me to give Snowball cbd oil every four hours so he does not have seizures until his pharmaceutical meds kick in. ( I make sure he does swallow the meds )
I am grateful that Snowballs natural meds were on discount today.
Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Whether it be as a parent or whether you are caring for a parent the daily demands are over whelming at times.
That is why we need to take time every day to be alone with Jesus. He will calm our nerves, sooth our bodies and bring peace to our spirits.
Being a care giver may not be the most stressful, abusive and unappreciative thing you have ever done but it is in the top ten. Joseph- Anthony a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Oh thank you Jesus Immeka (Judges 6:12 The LORD Is with You ) for being with me during the times when I am exhausted and feel like I cannot go on. You bless me with Your strength.
Oh thank you for blessing me when You are a calming shelter when the storm of stress because of abusive parents is about to crash upon me and destroy me. You bless me with such Divine peace.
Oh thank you Jesus that because no one wants to hear my cries of stress, suffering and trauma, You are always there to wrap Your soothing, loving, comforting arms around me and let me cry like I have never cried before in Your gentle loving arms.
I praise You in Your magnificent loving name. Amen
May you have a grateful heart towards He who has given so much to you. indeovi vas ( may you live with Jesus in Latin )

The Christian life is a daily putting off all that belonged to the unregenerate old self and constantly putting on all that belongs to the new life in Christ. The cross and the resurrection extend their power and influence over the believer’s entire life.
The Christian life is constantly producing new life. This new life in Christ through His Spirit must be daily replacing within the soul what our daily crucifixion of the flesh is taking away. This new life in Christ fills the emptiness created by self-denial with some new likeness of Christ. In place of the natural affection, there comes some new divine affection (Eph. 4:17-32).
“You are dead . . . . you are risen with Christ” (Col. 3:1, 6).
The flesh will never produce a strong spiritual life that pleases God and looks and smells like authentic Christianity. The flesh will always disgrace the Lord Jesus Christ no matter how you try to dress it up in legalism.
The Holy Spirit is busy making real in the believer’s life what is already true of him doctrinally.
The believer has not only died, but is to “die daily” with Christ as long as we live in this present life because we are in “an irreconcilable enmity” between the flesh and the spirit (Gal. 5:17). We have no option but to take up the cross daily in following Christ. The flesh can only reproduce itself. It holds no possibility of a divine life. This dying to self and sin is something we do daily.
Our life-long growth in Christ-likeness is a determination to deliver us to death for Christ’s sake all that is kin to our old life before we gave our lives to Christ. It is also a commitment to put on Christ daily.
It is each believer’s responsibility to submit to the work of the Holy Spirit in mortifying the flesh and therefore bring our body under the dominion of the cross of Christ.
Moreover, the Christian life is not just a life of crucifixion; it is also a new life in Christ Jesus.
“You are risen with Christ.” This is the second part of this essential doctrine of Christian living. Our progressive sanctification includes both “taking off” the old self and “putting on” the new. Since “you are risen with Christ” keep on “seeking those things which are above.”
Yes, we “die daily,” but we were also made a “new creation” in Christ and our inward person is being “renewed day by day.”
The apostle Paul wrote, “I live, yet not I, but Christ lives in me” (Gal. 2:20).
The daily spiritual growth of the Christian towards perfection lies always in these two opposite directions. The believer is always subjecting, repressing, and mortifying the natural man on the one hand, and nourishing, developing, and renewing the spiritual man on the other. It is not one or the other; it is both principles and activities working in conjunction with one another.
It is our responsibility to daily judge and mortify all that we find in our attitudes, behaviors and values that are in the flesh and contrary to authentic Christian living. Yes, there must be a daily denial to anything that is not Christ-like.
A negative process is never adequate to accomplish a positive goal. And no amount or kind of self-denial can make a person holier, or sinless. What is needed is the means of bringing him into more intimate fellowship with Christ. Every retreat from the life of the flesh must be followed by a deeper entering into the life of the Spirit. We take off the old man, and we put on the new man in Christ.
As we abide in Christ, we walk as our Lord walked.
SELAH! Pause – reflect- just think of that!
