MOM to her child

November 26, 2010 insightsandeyesights

*I gave you life, but cannot live it for you.

*I can give you directions, but I cannot be there to lead you.

* I can take you to church, but I cannot make you believe.

* I can buy you beautiful clothes,but I cannot make you beautiful inside.

*I can give you love, but I cannot force it upon you.

*I can teach you to share, but I cannot make you unselfish.

*I can teach you respect, but I cannot force you to show honor.

*I can advise you about friends, but cannot choose them for you.

*I can advise you about sex, but I cannot keep you pure.

*I can tell you about alcohol & drugs,but I cannot say “no” for you.

*I can tell you about lofty goals, but I cannot achieve them for you.

*I can teach you about kindness, but I cannot force you to be gracious.

*I can pray for you, but I cannot make you walk with God.

*I can tell you how to live, but I cannot give you eternal life.

*I can love you with unconditional love all of my life…. and I will.
