Are You Raising Children in This Culture of Disrespect?
Every day, I love watching the wildlife that have taken a fancy to the rolling green pastures located behind our home.
Besides the hawks, herons, and deer, it’s also a blast to see cows grazing in those fields.
I know that the beauty of our surroundings comes from our Creator God and I will never take it for granted.
And, now that spring has sprung, the mama cows are birthing babies.
The calves chasing each other at mealtime are a hilarious sight to see.
Unfortunately, vultures are out there too.
Recently, a friend of ours posted about an awful scene that she witnessed.
Several vultures were attacking one of the newborn calves.
The mother cow by herself wasn’t able to defend her baby.
Someone called the ranch owner for help.
The thought of that defenseless young calf in jeopardy makes me think about our younger generation today.
A stretch?
No, I don’t think so.
Satanic “vultures” are out, and they’re going after any semblance of Biblical family values that our great country has left.
A Growing Culture of Disrespect
Parents – your child’s innocence is under threat, often without your knowing about it.
Be on guard and protective, not only regarding what your kids watch on social media and TV, but also what they’re exposed to in some public schools.
Here’s an alarming example, and also here.
Cases like these are becoming more widespread.
Of all the social institutions designed by God, I suppose none is under greater attack than the family. This shouldn’t surprise us, for destroying relationships is the ultimate scheme of Satan and it is here we find the most intimate. Indeed, it seems that the entirety of the world, the flesh, and the enemy are today aligned against the biblical family. And the family is the heart of a culture. – Dr. Del Tackett, Christian author. Dr. James Dobson Family Institute.
Your children need your guidance to face the bombardment of confusing messages they’re receiving from just about everywhere. Don’t leave it up to other people.
Disrespect For God’s Design
In one disturbing headline, a female singer is getting press because she wants to change her identifying pronoun.
It’s not like she’s alone in that kind of thinking.
Social media giants like Pinterest and Facebook, for example, are asking people which pronoun they want to use when they sign up.
It’s all very bizarre and a reflection of how far and rapidly we’ve sunk.
And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him to whom we must answer. – Hebrews 4:13, (NASB).
Father God, please protect our younger generation.
Without any boundaries, or any realization of how valuable they are to God as they are – kids are tempted and encouraged to follow the world’s lusts and desires every single day.
Unsurpassed Joy
We are backsliding into a Sodom and Gomorrah-like society where almost anything goes.
I do enough research to know that the vultures are not done.
Does anyone really think it will stop here?
No, it will get much, much worse.
Thankfully, there is an eternal way out of this someday.
The “when” is up to God.
He alone knows the number of our days.
Some day in the future, Christians will breathe a sigh of relief because all of this demonically-inspired evil will disappear.
At that future time, we can look forward to praising and delighting in God forever.
We will have unsurpassed joy.
God is our Father and He cares about His children – that includes you and me.
No headlines glorifying evil will ever distract us again.
Frankly, when the doers mess with us, they’re messing with Him.
How do we live in a culture like this, dear Remnant? Stand strong and do not lose hope. Stay true to God’s Word. Be the Virtuous Female or the Noble Male. Concentrate on building and nurturing your family with a fierce determination, for the attacks of the enemy here are ever-present and relentless. – Dr. Del Tackett, Christian author, Dr. James Dobson Family Institute.
