A To Z Challenge

A To Z Challenge

It’s April and it’s that time of the year again for the A to Z Challenge.

Again I’m going to blog in the A to Z challenge for the month of April.  It is exactly what it sounds like.  Starting with the letter A (April 1st) and ending with the letter Z (April 30th).

I’m hoping this will improve my writing skills as well as hoping for new viewers and new people to interact with about being a parent.  I’m going with the theme of my blog again this year and I will also have a link on top of my blog that will allow you to only see the A to Z challenge posts.

If you like to know more about this challenge then click here.  I’ll have my first post out April 1st which is in seven days.

Thank You for reading and following my blog. Please follow this blog on Facebook (www.facebook.com/lifeofabusydad) and Twitter (@LifeofaBusyDad) if you want to stay up to date with this blog.  I’m also starting up a podcast in April as well called Father of 4 Podcast.  Feel free to check it out here.

Proverbs 13:7 is another reading in the bible that deals with money and being humble.

Proverbs 13:7 talks about how sometimes if you act like your wealthy and a snob sometimes means you are not rich at all.  The other part is that most financial wealthy people really act like any other person that don’t have money.  They are frugal and humble around others and truly care about others.  They are friendly with strangers and don’t think they are better than anybody else.  These are just some characteristics of what this passage is trying to teach you about.  How some people are trying to be better than everyone else.  They are really in a worse position then you are in and they are just in denial.

This also will help parents teach their children how to act and treat others no matter how rich they are or poor they are.  This is truly learned but showing your kids by example as well as telling them how to do this.

 

Here are two different bible translations of Proverbs 13:7

 

Proverbs 13:7

New International Version (NIV)

7 One person pretends to be rich, yet has nothing;
    another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth.

 

Proverbs 13:7

New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)

7 Some pretend to be rich, yet have nothing;
    others pretend to be poor, yet have great wealth.

KJV Bible

1 Corinthians 13:4-5 is another reading in the bible that deals with Love and it is also one of my all time favorite passages. When you read this passage in the bible you remember what love is about.

To me 1 Corinthians 13:4-5 talks about how love sees others and the actions it is towards others.  This really helps if others are being dishonoring, selfish, mean, and doing wrongs toward you.  It helps me take a higher and better road then the one they are traveling.

This also will help parents teach their children what love means and how you should treat others even if they don’t treat you the same way.

Here are two different bible translations of 1 Corinthians 13:4-5

 

1 Corinthians 13:4-5

New International Version (NIV)

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.

 

1 Corinthians 13:4-5

New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)

4 Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;
