Just me trying to be honest with God.

“Respect for ourselves guides our morals; respect for others guides our manners.” Laurence Sterne

My parents taught me to say, “Yes Sir.” and “Yes Ma’am.” Reverence and respect were an important part of my upbringing. The reason behind my parents teaching was simple: when you show respect for authority, or someone of age, you show respect to their Maker. We may disagree with our parents or the policies of someone in a position of authority, but we should never be disrespectful to them.  

“For there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Rom.13 Conversations Within” ts 10/8/2020
