Recognition

"Honor thy father and thy mother, that thou mayest be long-lived upon the land which the Lord thy God will give thee" 

Have you honored your parents, superiors, or masters according to your just duty?
Have you deceived them or disobeyed them?
Have you failed to respect the elderly?


For most of us in life, we always have someone to answer to. Whether it be our parents, teachers, bosses, leaders, bishops, abbots or abbesses must obey those to whom we owe due reverence. We must respect their experience. Their hard earned experience was gained from the number of times they've "been around the block " so to speak. Their experiences can be the key to living a happy life! LEARN WISDOM!


In the instance of parents, motherhood and fatherhood, are very important vocations. To be a mother or father involves every grain of your being.They are called to be mirror images of God's love.  We are called as sons and daughters to respect and love our parents as our natural caregivers and to respect everything that they do for us for the sake of their love for us. 


As Mothers Day and Fathers Day approach, show your parents that you appreciate them! Pray for them to your heavenly Father; saints like St. Gianna, St. Monica, and other parent saints, as well as ask for our heavenly mother, Mary's intercession. 


May God Bless our Parents and Superiors and may the Holy Spirit guide them in all that they do!
