Parental Support
I have mentioned this saying in my previous post but it's important I mention it here again for emphasis sake.
"By choosing a spouse, you are choosing a father or mother for your children".
I have come to understand the necessity of parental support in the lives of children. Even though we are responsible for our outcome in life as individuals, parental influence has a huge role to play in our becoming.
From the stories of Dr. Ben Carson, The Antetokounmpo's (Basket Ball Players), Venus and Serena Williams (Tennis Players), Geeta and Babita Kumari (India Female Wrestlers) and many more have proven that parental support and encouragement cannot be overemphasized.
These amongst many were individuals who got to the level they are now because their parents believed in them even when no one did.
It's a beautiful thing when your child has his/her life figured out but it's important to support your child even when it looks like he/she has nothing figured out. Parental support is so comforting and encouraging.
Hearing stories of people who got to the highest level of their career because of parental support points to one of the many benefits of parental support.
Am I saying that you can't succeed without parental support? No
Amazingly, we are responsible for how we end up no matter the state of the background.
Nothing is as comforting as knowing that God (Our Heavenly Father) has your back. Yes he does, He is ready to walk you through the most difficult and most beautiful days of your life.
It doesn't matter if you have your earthly parents support or not, God's support is constant, all you need to do is acknowledge Him in all you do, refuse to take steps without involving Him.
I believe this piece has blessed you, do well to drop a comment and share with loved ones.
I really appreciate the lessons that "Nothing is as comforting as knowing that God (Our Heavenly Father) has my back."
