TEARS EARLY IN THE MORNING

TEARS EARLY IN THE MORNING

Tears flowed freely from my eyes early this morning. My wife asked my second son Joel about the bus fee card and the bus fee he brought back last Friday. My son was told to give to the school bus driver but he didn’t last Friday. We were looking for it high and low before Joel went to school this morning, with my wife scolding my son and my son insisted he had given the card to my wife. My wife said she did not receive the card, if she had she would remember where she put it, she said. Joel went to school without us finding the card with the RM50 fee. I sent our eldest son to school. When I came back I discovered the card and the money had been found by my wife. Apparently, she did take it from my son but this morning she completely forgot about it. She was so fill with remorse and she asked me to go to see our son in the school to tell him we had found it. At first, I told her to go herself since she was the one who had made the mistake. At this point, tears filled her eyes and I quickly told her I would go.
I made up my mind to give our son an extra RM2. My wife had given him RM3 because he had tuition today.
When I entered the school, Joel was just about to go the the school assembly with his classmates. I met him at the staircase. I told him we had found the bus card and fee and I also told him Mommy was sorry.
This episode in our family really touched my heart. God was working in our hearts and our relationships. God began to work in my own heart and I was crying inside on my way back. I told God “I have not been a good husband to my wife, not able to provide for her. She was so worried about our finance. She took care of our finance. All my take home pay I gave to her, even money for my petrol. I told God if I can’t be a good husband to her at least she has good sons to take care of her, to love her dearly.
My wife told me she prayed with Joel last night because Joel was afraid to go to sleep after listening to the testimony of the sounds from hell. It is not wonder, she said Joel was attacked spiritually this morning and she herself was attacked in the process.

This morning also we resolved to spend time with our eldest son-I suggested we bring him out for lunch. We wanted to talk to him about his poor academic performance last semester. Our eldest son Ezekiel is in Form 4 this year. After our third son Timothy went to school we went to fetch Ezekiel from school. The three of us went to E-mart for lunch. My son, as usual doesn’t want to go, being a teenager I guess he doesn’t feel comfortable being seen with his parents. He wanted to go home but we insisted. At E-mart we saw Ronnie eating with his colleagues. Then after doing a lit bit of marketing, we came back. During the time I also take the opportunity to teach my son about patience especially in accompanying women on shopping. I told him he has to be patience with his wife in future, especially if his wife is just window shopping.
When we reached home, we have a heart-to-heart talk with him. We do not want to scold him for having bad marks. We wanted to motivate him. He’s a bright kid actually, just that he did not really push himself to work harder. After talking to him, we prayed for him. Only the Lord can change him.
