May 12, 2024 "Father's Love" (Ephesians 6:1-3) DOEM Spring Picnic

Father's Love

Ephesians 6:1-3

 

Today is parent's day which makes it a good time to talk about parents.

 

The first commandment of ten commandments is not having a good relationship with your parent; however, it is the first commandment with a promise.  

 

Ephesians 6:1-3 ESV

[1]  Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. [2] “Honor your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise), [3] “that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land."

 

Our fathers are just as fragile as we are. Our parents try to make the best decisions with what they have and who they are.

 
So Will I
How Great Is Our God

May 05, 2024 "Ability to Love" (Genesis 2:25)

 

Ability to Love

Genesis 2:25

 

In Korea, the month of May is known as the month of love. There is parents' day and children's day. There is also teachers' day because teachers play such an important part in people's lives.  

 

In the past, marriage was done for social or material gain. There was also a need to produce children and carry on the family name. When the romantic period arrived, people started to marry for love. This has given some false understanding of marriage. We should love one another but marriage is not just an emotion.

 

When Adam and Eve were together or married they were in their most vulnerable status, free of social status or other guise. They loved each other genuinely.

 

Genesis 2:25 ESV

[25] And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed.

 

Jesus loved us despite our sins. Jesus could see through our actions, words and trickery. Jesus saw us truly as we are and could still love us.

 

A good marriage should be based on the ability to love under any circumstances.  We need to love our spouse in the best of times and the worst of times.  

 

Our children teach us about the best qualities of love. They teach us about patience, unconditional love and forgiveness.
