A Frustrated Mother
I’m going to start this off with a story of an event that just happened last week with my 14-year-old son. I must have pulled out onto a two lane road in a way that made a driver very unhappy, and as he whipped around me he honked his horn, threw up his arms, flipped us off and yelled obscenities. He was closest to my son who watched him. I felt horrible that my son had to see this display. And as we discussed it he said “it’s OK I’m not bothered but, If it was a highschooler or younger person it would’ve made more sense. But this person was an adult.” My point is—this was a grown man acting like a child not caring who his audience was as he was being really nasty and unkind. His middle finger, dirty looks, his yelling obscenities was all towards my son sitting the closest to him as he drove by. This anger had no filter, no thought, and it damaged my son in a way this person cannot take back.
ENOUGH ALREADY!! I, as a mother of three boys, actually, three teenage men, is completely disappointed in each and everyone of you speaking poorly of your brothers and sisters. Can you imagine how the Lord must feel to witness His children dragging one another through the mud as so many of you have? It’s like you get off on your mean spiritedness towards one another! It’s disgusting. I’m speaking as a mother and you are all my children hurting one another. I love my kids, and yes, I have been utterly disappointed, even disgusted in their behavior at times! But I don’t go on the internet and tell the world about it! Nope, not even Facebook. To all the parents who have had arguing children and have listen to them yelling “he said this, she said that, I am right he is wrong?” Complaining, arguing, nagging?!??? Have you ever thrown up your hands and in exasperation told them all to “GO TO YOUR ROOM, I don’t care who is right!!” you are done with them, you don’t care who is right, you just want them to be nice to each other!!??!! This entire discussion, bagging on one other is ridiculous. Again, can you imagine your kids growing up and not agreeing with one another and then going on the Internet and airing everything out about your family hitting below the belt, being nasty and unkind to one another, for all the world to see? I’m sure you would be just beaming with pride. Ugh. Put yourself in the Lords position looking at his beloved children, whom he died for, doing this to one another? Stop already. Cut it out acting like little children. Love one another fiercely, pray for one another. I tell you, reading through these threads, there is no life. Just death. Just pointing fingers, digging to find fault. There is arrogance, ugly satisfaction of finding faults in one another. What a dishonor to our God, our Father. The only reason why I’m commenting, is for my great love to you all. I have brothers and sisters that exercise their faith in denominations, as Catholics, Baptist’s, non denominational mega church, and small church goers, and the list goes on. Even if they say things that I may not agree with I would never drag them through the mud, I would never hurt them so intentionally and so unkindly as you are, believers in Christ, are doing. I love you enough to say please stop. Before you meet the Lord, whenever that may be-you must be right with God and man. I repeat: you must be right with God and man before you meet the Lord. I exhort you all with any opinions with any poor speaking with any ugliness in your heart to any of God’s children your brothers and sisters, to take it before the Lord, and the Lord only. If anyone is wrong and in their speaking of the Lord, He will take care of it, the Lord says vengeance is mine. (Romans 12:19) Bible 101: 1) LOVE ONE ANOTHER 2. 1 John 4:20-21 3. 2 Corinthians 8:21 There have been people hurt by every religion, every church, every religious organization since the beginning of time. Seriously, this isn’t front page news. The enemy hates us and will use us all. The LC is no exception. The fact is : We are ALL fallen, and saved by grace, God loves all men and desires them to be saved and come to the full knowledge of the truth. (1Timothy 2:4) I understand some think they are doing the Lords work by revealing truth, but the Lord says we don’t need anyone to teach us that we will know by the anointing. (1 John 2:27) Remain in a proper spirit and heart towards the Lord by not coming here to complain about anyone or anything. Come forward to build one another up, not break anyone down. (1 Thessalonians 5:11) May the Lord touch us so deeply concerning this website, touch us concerning our heart towards one another. Lord Jesus, have mercy on us and lead us to have a the deepest love towards one another. While in ourselves we are unable to truly love and forgive, but PRAISE THE LORD, IN CHRIST ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE! With more love than you know, Your sister in Christ |
