Respect Your Father and Mother

 
 
Children, obey your parents because you are Christians. This is the right thing to do.
 


EPHESIANS 6:1
 

 
Is it hard to obey your Mom or Dad? Obeying is important. But we all have trouble obeying sometimes. Number five of the Ten Commandments is: "Honor your father and your mother."
God said to obey your parents. You should treat them with respect That means listening to them and obeying them. Obeying your parents helps you learn how to obey God. Your parents love you and want the best for you. So does God!
