🌿 THE DAY JESUS TAUGHT THE CHILDREN TO OBEY THEIR PARENTS
Long ago, in a peaceful village, many children gathered around Jesus as He sat beneath a large tree.
The children were laughing and asking Him questions. Jesus looked at them with love and said:
“My dear children, your parents are gifts from God. When they guide you, listen to them and show them respect.”
One little boy raised his hand and asked, “Teacher, what if I want to do things my own way?”
Jesus smiled gently and answered, “A wise child listens to good instruction. Obey your parents, help them when you can, and speak to them with kindness.”
The children became quiet and listened carefully.
Jesus continued, “Do not wait until you are grown before you learn obedience. Start today. Help your mother. Respect your father. Listen when they correct you, and always show them love.”
The children nodded their heads and promised to remember His teaching.
From that day forward, whenever their parents called them, they listened. They helped at home and treated their parents with respect.
And the village elders would always say:
“A child who learns obedience and respect today grows into a wise person tomorrow.”
