sin began to open and unfurl.
Your parents watched you grow before their eyes,
not realizing what God had in mind.
Soon you would go off to school,
being taught all the world’s rules.
Learning the difference between one another,
not necessarily just about skin color.
As the years went by,
questions were asked, “Why?”
“Why do I feel differently,
with the gender God gave to me?”
Not expecting to hear such a question,
it’s often dismissed without any lessons.
“Why, my dear, would you ask such a thing?”
the parents would answer shockingly.
In reply, the child proclaimed, “My friends, at school, say it’s cool!
Their parents said they could go to a private school.”
Dismayed, as they were, they were speechless,
still in unbelief at their child’s new weakness.
The parents agreed to talk about this later,
because they were not expecting this behavior.
After their parents discussed between themselves,
they got on their knees, asking for God’s help.
“Dear Lord, please help us understand,
what You have for our child, in Your master plan.”
Seeking the Lord with all their hearts,
they felt the Lord saying, “It stems from their heart.”
No matter what the child’s gender is,
the enemy will attack their soul within.
We should always keep our children in prayer,
knowing our heavenly Father does care.
The parents of this world don’t seem to see,
what lies within their responsibilities.
God’s Word clearly tells us what to do,
when we are faced without a clue.
We are to raise them within His Word,
despite what other parents have heard.
Train up a child in the way
he should go: And when he
is old, he will not depart
from it.
Proverbs 22:6 (NKJV)
