Your Roots

Some deny their parents out of shame; others do so to avoid the pain of parental neglect or abuse. Today, we need to stop nursing that animosity but to embrace our roots. The Gospel of Matthew starts with the genealogy of Jesus Christ. Why? Simple: Our roots ground us and help us stand.

Prayer: Lord, enable me to see my parents’ difficulties in coping with their own issues at the time they were raising me. As I have received your unconditional love and good teaching, I will not reject where I come from but love, respect and care for my parents in ways that are pleasing to you. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
