Respect your father and mother . . . Exodus 20:12 (The Message)
Honor your father and mother > . .  Exodus 20:12 (N.V.)
 

As Mother’s Day is approaching, we can remind our grandchildren to thank God for their mothers. Talk with them about all the ways their mother cares for them by providing meals,
clothing, transportation, activities, play times, and etc. Help them think about how their mother teaches them to be accountable in their behavior, and grow up to be capable of being trusted
responsible adults. Encourage them to show appreciation to their mother for all she does for them.

When one honors and respects their mother they will have a feeling of admiration for her.  Let’s pray that our grandchildren will make this Mother’s Day a special day for their mothers.

• Pray your grandchildren will take the time to thank God for their mothers.
• Pray that your grandchildren will honor and respect their mothers.
• Pray they will be thankful and appreciate their mothers.

To make things more confusing, they weren’t giving me the same directions. This experience reminds us that many “voices” compete for our grandchildren’s attention. Some voices impart truth; others don’t.

Grandparenting Without Overstepping

Most of us also remember what it felt like when our own parents interfered in our parenting. We didn’t appreciate it then—and our kids won’t now. So how do we stay involved without overstepping?
