The Father's Lament

My kids don’t appreciate what I provide for them.
They don’t acknowledge the hardship I went through to be able to provide for them.
They want to take advantage of everything I’ve provided for them by having fun, playing, and pursuing their own goals and interests.

My kids tread on me and squander my provision.
They don’t recognize the sacrifices I’ve made.
They treat me like a second-class citizen.

My kids don’t like what I like.
They don’t spend time with me.
They are lazy and selfish.

My kids don’t include me in their plans.
They don’t seek my counsel.
They don’t listen to me.

My kids don’t honor or respect me.
They won’t make the sacrifice to do something they don’t like to do just to show me how much they love me.
They don’t try to build a relationship with me.

Thanks for listening to my complaints.

Signed,

God the Father
