Proverbs 13:10 Pride only breeds quarrels, but wisdom is found in those who take advice.

Proverbs 13:10 Pride only breeds quarrels, but wisdom is found in those who take advice.

Have you told your father or mother or someone else that you would always love them no matter what. Don't let your pride come between you and the ones you love…life will run out, and all you'll be left with is your pride and regret.

When you are older, and your children do not talk to you when you might expect them to, or want them to, please remember that your parents wanted you to talk to them too.

When you asked your father or mother for advice over the years, which was given to you in love, and then you turned against them suddenly, and said "no more are you my parents", what might you have felt if you had given advice to your children, and then they turned against you suddenly, and were angry with you for offering? Would you have been angry if your parents wouldn't give you advice all those years?

Will you stop giving advice to your children because they might turn against you? Would you expect your mother or father to be mute when their love for you is still faithful and strong?

Pray that one day after you've turned your face and heart away from your mother or father that your mother or father will be there for you.

Loving unconditionally means loving no matter what. I wish from time to time that I still had the chance to ask my father for advice who died 29 years ago.

Or that my mother would be my mother again. How could a daughter keep being a daughter when her mother kept disrespecting her husband because he's disabled? Finally, I said "no more". I pray every day that healing will begin. My mother chose to put her prejudice first instead of being a mother as she had always been. I forgave her long ago but she doesn't even know it.

The Lord said, "Pride only breeds quarrels, but wisdom is found in those who take advice". When will the ones we love be wise?
