Isa 14.13-14

If you believe Isa 14.13-14 describes satan, his self-written “job description” should interest you.

1.) “I will ascend into heaven”

2.) “I will exalt my throne above the stars of God”

3.) “I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north”

4.) “I will ascend above the heights of the clouds”

5.) “I will be like the most High”

Let a girl become a Lady

Mom/Dad – you ARE responsible

to raise your daughter to be feminine; yes even lady-like. It’s not God’s plan that she be masculine in any way. Mom, as a young daughter, don’t buy or dress her in boy’s clothes. (Personally I’d discourage the use of PJs for girls -after the “sleeper” stage- why let her have a “pants feel.”) Introduce her young to the power of knowing how to cook, bake, and to scrumptious salads. She should see this as it really is, a great ability. Dad, support your wife in developing a lady, not a tom-boy. Dad/Mom teach her how to walk, stand, and sit like a lady.

You will rejoice someday to have a feminine daughter.

FOURTH FLOOR VISITOR

 

Little squirrel with bushy tail

From tree to tree I see you sail

Never once to see you fail

               The air to slice.

Wish I could learn to fly,

Against the vaulted, azure sky.

What a thrill, O me, O my –

               It must be nice.

Let a boy become a Man

Parents – you ARE responsible for raising boys to be male

– all male. It was never God’s plan that a son be effeminate. Never. Dad, teach him to partner with you, teach him (patiently) how to work with your tools (& get him his own for BD’s), and to appreciate the sense of a job “well done.” Mom, even as a little boy, do not buy him cuts of clothing or colors which are not fully masculine. (No, it’s not “cute” to see him play with dolls.) Stand together, Dad/Mom, on him having male haircuts, a man’s walk, and how to stand/sit in a masculine way.

You’ll someday rejoice to have a man for a son.
