Parents, Don’t Let Your Children Regret That You Brought Them Into This World

Bringing a child into the world is a great responsibility and a sacred trust from God. Children are not merely gifts to be born; they are lives entrusted to parents to nurture, guide, protect, discipline, and prepare for the future.

Parents, don’t let your children grow up wishing they had never been born because of the way you treated them. Do not make your home a place of constant fear, rejection, humiliation, hatred, or emotional pain. A child should be able to look back on childhood and remember love, guidance, correction, protection, and good examples.

The Bible says:

“Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.”
— Psalm 127:3 (KJV)

If children are an heritage from the Lord, parents must understand that raising them is a serious responsibility. Provide for their needs, listen to them, teach them, correct them with wisdom, and show them what godly character looks like.

The Bible also gives parents this warning:

“And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.”
— Ephesians 6:4 (KJV)

Discipline is important, but discipline without love can leave deep wounds. Correction should teach a child what is right, not convince the child that he or she is worthless.

The book of Proverbs reminds us:

“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”
— Proverbs 22:6 (KJV)

Parents should therefore be intentional about what they teach their children. Your words, actions, marriage, relationships, attitudes, and treatment of others all become lessons your children learn.

Never constantly tell your child, “You are useless,” “I wish I never had you,” or “You will never amount to anything.” Words spoken by a parent can remain in a child’s heart for many years.

Instead, let your children hear words that build them up. Correct them when they are wrong, but remind them that they are loved. Set boundaries, but also explain why those boundaries exist. Be firm when necessary, but never forget to be compassionate.

The Bible says:

“A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.”
— Proverbs 15:1 (KJV)

Parents will make mistakes. No parent is perfect. But when you make a mistake, have the humility to apologize. Saying “I am sorry” does not make you a weak parent; it teaches your child humility, responsibility, and forgiveness.

Remember also:

“The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are blessed after him.”
— Proverbs 20:7 (KJV)

Your children may forget many things you bought for them, but they are likely to remember how you made them feel. Give them memories of a home where they were loved, valued, protected, corrected, and encouraged.

Parents, your children did not choose to be born. You brought them into this world, and God has entrusted them to you. Do your best to make their journey through life one filled with love, wisdom, discipline, encouragement, and godly instruction.

Do not be the reason your child grows up carrying bitterness toward life or wishing they had never been born.

Be the parent whose child can one day say: “I am grateful that God gave me these parents.”

May God give every parent the wisdom, patience, strength, and love needed to raise children who will become responsible, compassionate, and God-fearing adults.

THE EVILDOERS IN OUR SOCIETY

Published

Evil is becoming increasingly visible in our society—corruption, violence, oppression, dishonesty, greed, injustice, and wickedness. Some people hurt others for personal gain, while others use their positions to oppress the weak and protect wrongdoing.

But God sees everything.

📖 “Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.”
— Psalm 37:1 (KJV)

Those who commit evil should not think they will escape God’s judgment. Human beings may hide their actions from people, but nothing is hidden from God.

📖 “For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known.”
— Luke 12:2 (KJV)

The Bible also warns those who use power to make unjust decisions:

📖 “Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and write grievousness which they have prescribed.”
— Isaiah 10:1 (KJV)

A society cannot experience lasting peace when evil is tolerated, injustice is rewarded, and the innocent are ignored.

📖 “Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.”
— Proverbs 14:34 (KJV)

Therefore, let us not repay evil with evil. Let us stand for truth, defend the innocent, seek justice, and encourage repentance.

📖 “Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.”
— Psalm 34:14 (KJV)

And finally:

📖 “Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.”
— Romans 12:21 (KJV)

LET US REJECT EVIL AND CHOOSE RIGHTEOUSNESS.

A better society begins with people who are willing to do what is right—even when nobody is watching.

“Your Hands Are Full of Innocent Blood”

Published

The Bible speaks strongly against the shedding of innocent blood. When human beings deliberately harm, oppress, or destroy the lives of others, God does not ignore it. He sees every act of injustice, every life taken wrongfully, and every innocent person who suffers.

Isaiah 1:15 (KJV) says:

“And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.”

This is a serious warning. We cannot live in wickedness and expect God to overlook our actions simply because we pray or appear religious. God desires genuine repentance, righteousness, mercy, and justice.

Proverbs 6:16–17 (KJV) declares:

“These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood.”

Hands that shed innocent blood are an abomination before God. Human life is precious because every person is created by God.

Genesis 9:6 (KJV) reminds us:

“Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.”

The message is clear: Do not become an instrument of violence, injustice, or destruction. Do not allow anger, hatred, greed, revenge, political ambition, tribal hatred, or personal conflict to make you responsible for the suffering of innocent people.

God also calls those who have done wrong to repent. Ezekiel 18:21 (KJV) says:

“But if the wicked will turn away from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.”

Therefore, if your hands have been stained by wrongdoing, do not harden your heart. Turn away from evil. Seek forgiveness. Make peace where possible. Restore what you have destroyed and choose righteousness.

Micah 6:8 (KJV) says:

“He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?”

Let our hands be known for helping rather than hurting, protecting rather than destroying, and showing mercy rather than shedding innocent blood.

A warning to every heart:
The blood of the innocent may be hidden from people, but it is never hidden from God. What is concealed from human eyes is fully known by the Almighty.

“Your hands are full of innocent blood” is not merely an accusation—it is a call to repentance. Turn from violence. Turn from hatred. Turn from injustice. Choose life, mercy, righteousness, and peace.

A BURNING LAMP CAN SEE THE FAULTS OF ANOTHER, BUT CANNOT SEE ITS OWN

Published

A burning lamp can shine brightly and reveal what is hidden in the darkness, yet it cannot see the darkness within itself. In the same way, a person may be very quick to identify the faults, mistakes, and weaknesses of others while failing to examine his or her own life.

The Bible warns us against such hypocrisy:

“And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?”
— Matthew 7:3 (KJV)

Before we condemn another person, we should first examine ourselves. It is easy to point fingers at someone else’s wrongdoing, but true wisdom begins with self-examination.

Jesus continued:

“Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.”
— Matthew 7:5 (KJV)

A lamp is useful because it gives light to others, but we must remember that we also need God’s light to search our own hearts.

The Psalmist prayed:

“Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts.”
— Psalm 139:23 (KJV)

Let us therefore not become people who are experts at exposing the faults of others while ignoring our own shortcomings. Before correcting another person, let us humbly ask God to correct us first.

“For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.”
— 1 Corinthians 11:31 (KJV)

The lesson is simple: A lamp may illuminate another person’s path, but it also needs to be examined. Let your light shine, but never become blind to your own faults. Self-examination, humility, and repentance are signs of true wisdom.
