Honour your father and mother. Take care of them when they are aged. They have sacrificed a lot in raising you. If you take care of them, your children will care for you when you are aged. It is the divine responsibility of every parent to care for their children, and for children to care for their parents when they are aged.
Remember the countless hours your dad worked hard to bring you gifts, the hands that fed and embraced you—but now he has become a stranger to you.
Your mum has done everything for you: she dressed you, cooked food for you, packed your lunch, and fasted and prayed for you. But now, she is an alien to you.
Once you began earning a little money, you felt on top of the world and started hurting and abusing your loving parents. You then left home, leaving them in tears.
If you cannot love your parents who are in front of you, how will you love the Father whom you have not seen?
God will judge you.
“Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind” (Matthew 22:37).
Many people leave their parents in an old age home. Will God not judge such a cruel and unloving heart?
Love your parents, and take care of all their needs in their old age. Remember all that they have done for you. Speak to them, dine with them, care for them, and love them. If you hurt and mistreat your aged parents, tomorrow, your children will do the same to you. Do not hurt them with your words or gestures; they need your love. Express your love to them today; tomorrow, you might regret it, for life is like a vapor.
