Here is the Post Charity Begins at Home, we discussed ‘starting her early life with God; showing interest in her affairs; being inquisitive etc.
In this part, we are going to be more practical in our approach, we are going to look into some questions that will enable us know if truly we know our daughters.
Knowing your daughter is being able to predict her capabilities, what she can or cannot do. In this regard, let me share this true life story with you:
A seventeen year old girl called her mum’s co-worker with her
mum’s phone. When the man answered, she told him that she wants to be his lover. The man replied saying that she should stop
the joke thinking that it was the mum making a joke of him.
The girl told the man that if he did not agree with her, she will tell her dad that the man is having an affair with her mum. The man was shocked to his marrow and when he went to the mum’s office to inquire why she is doing this expensive joke, he discovered that she had forgotten her phone at home.
The girl told the man that if he did not agree with her, she will tell her dad that the man is having an affair with her mum. The man was shocked to his marrow and when he went to the mum’s office to inquire why she is doing this expensive joke, he discovered that she had forgotten her phone at home.
The co-worker promptly told the mum what her daughter is using her phone to do at home. The mum did not believe what this man told her until when her daughter called back and the phone was handed to her to listen. She could not believe that the girl she is seeing as a baby can do this.
Really, you need to know
not only your daughter, but your children very, very well so that you will not
die of shock or develop a sickness when you learn the things they can do from
outside.
Consider these questions and be sincere with your answers. For the purpose of our study, we are going to focus on the girl child:
1. Do you know the nickname of your daughter?
2. Do you know your daughter’s three best
friends?
3. Do you know her favorite TV programme?
4. Do you know the kind of books she likes to
read?
5. Do you know her friends in the social
network?
6. Has she started dating?
7. Is she doing well in school or other
activities?
8. Is she interested in Church activities?
9. Where does she get the money to buy the
extra things you see her with?
If your answers to these
questions are ‘yes ‘then, you know who your daughter is, if your yes is 6 – 8,
you need to be more interested in her affairs.
If your answers are below 5, you do not know your daughter, and need sit
down and do your work well.
Thanks, I hope you
have learned one or two things. We need
to take care of what God has given us so that we will not incur the wrath of
God or share in the punishment of those who offend God.
