Bible Reading: Genesis 49: 3-7
Memory Verse: Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.” Galatians 3:13 (BSB)
A sister said: One day I was busy cleaning up my house when my little child came around to fall a glass decor which broke immediately. I got so mad at him because it was an expensive decor gifted to me by my mum. I literally loved it so much and loved keeping it. Out of anger, I cursed him saying: May wall crush your bone. In case you are surprised, cursing is almost part of some everyday speech in certain countries and tribes which they usually utter unconsciously without paying much attention to the consequences. She further said: Years later I forgot about the curse and didn’t even care about it, not knowing that it was already registered in hell. My son grew up with his siblings and he became my most favourite among others He was so kind to me compared to his siblings. He studied and got employed until it was time for us to prepare him for marriage. His father use to have an old house he intended to demolish and rebuild. My son went with his father to the apartment complex while the workers were preparing to demolish it. In the middle of the work, my son went away from his father, only for an unattentive worker to fall a big wall on him. My son screamed briefly and then his voice disappeared. Everyone rushed to his spot, removed pieces of rocks from his top, waited for the paramedics to arrive, and save his life as they were not able to lift his body because his bones were crushed into pieces. His father gave me a call to inform me of my beloved son’s presence in the ICU. I passed out immediately, and as soon as I regained my consciousness, it was as if the hour I cursed him was rewound in my head. I wept bitterly until I passed out again. I didn’t regain back my consciousness until I got to the hospital. I requested seeing my son. I wish I didn’t see him in that condition. I saw him at the time the heart monitoring machine stopped working, and he took his agonal last breathe. I screamed and cried repeating: How I wish he is back to break all precious decors I got. How I wish I was dumb at the hour I cursed him. How I wish.. But of what benefit is my wish now? Parents, let’s be careful of what we utter when we are angry. We don’t know the ones the devil will use against you or your children.
Quote: Words are seeds. There are no careless words.
