I guess today is a family themed blog writing type of day. The Lord is directly speaking to me now. I know that my dad is not the Lord, don’t get me wrong, but the Lord has ordered me to listen to my parents and so I will listen to my parents. My dad has been hitting heavy on my heart as of lately. Him and I are really developing a relationship that is worth fighting for. Anyways, let me share with you some wisdom that my dad has given me.

If you want to be more independent, start acting like it

            So just recently I ran out of medicine that I need really bad. I ran out of this medicine and my dad looked at me and he said, “what did you run out of money too?” and I said, “yeah I did.” And so he is going to buy me my medicine.

            A few moments passed and he comes into my room and he says, “ Look do you remember that other night when we were talking about independence?” and I said, “yeah I do.” He said, “well being in control of your finances is part of being independent” My dad, even though he may not be the richest, tells me that he handles his finances pretty well. I don’t deny that! God has blessed my dad with work and work that he can be proud of. Anyways, He has bills and they are big bills but he makes it through. I didn’t. Sure I have bills, but they are no where near as big as my dads or as vital to my well being as my dad’s.

            However, it’s not just the financial advice that my dad is giving me. My dad is showing me love by doing this. By correcting me in what I’m doing wrong, my dad is showing me love because he wants to see me grow up to be a good and strong independent son. I hope my dad gives me more lectures because I know that I’m going to become someone strong, big, and wise because of my dad.
