Based on the Bible but not exactly the Bible. "Hurry, hurry!" urged Yatar. "I've heard that Jesus is traveling toward Bethesda and I don't want to miss him." "Calm down, you are a good runner and I am sure you will catch up with the crowds." Replied his mom. "Can't you just let me go like my friends, must I wait for a meal?" Complained Yatar. "I do not know how long you will be gone so you need to take some food with you. Now go get your sandals." His mom calmly replied. Yatar quickly put on his sandals grabbed his meal and ran out the door. "Good bye, Mom!" Yatar yelled. "God bless you son, and be careful!" his mom responded.
Good parents love their children very much. Parents are constantly thinking about where their childen are going and what they're doing. Not because they want to torment them but because they are concerned about their safety and what they will need on their adventure. Be thankful for the parents you have. God has given them the responsibility to take care of you. Parents are not perfect, because like everyone, they can fall into sin and mess up. Jesus once said to parents:
If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give what is good to those who ask Him!*
The good news is, our Father in heaven loves you very much!
Matthew 7:11 (NASB)
