Message
The Bible warns that one of the signs of the end time will be an increase of children disobeying their parents. Some children believe that they have come of age and as a result do not see the need to obey or respect their parents. Others, as a result of their little achievement or peer pressure, fall into this last-day vices. You should bear in mind that God used your parents to bring you into the world. They sacrifice time, energy, and efforts to meet your needs and wants. They deserve all the respect you can give. Parents are your care-givers here on earth and are responsible for your wellbeing.
Honoring your parents include obeying them and running errands for them, listening to them, showing gratitude to them, not talking back, apologizing when you are wrong, responding with good body language, etc. Even when your opinions differ, you should honor them still and politely make your viewpoint known. Remember that honoring or respecting your parents is something God commands and will reward those who obey.
