"Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. 'Honor your father and mother,' which is the first commandment with promise: that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth” (Eph 6:1-3). What an admirable foundation St. Paul lays for a virtuous life: honor and respect for one's parents. This is the first good practice commanded us in the Scriptures, because before all others, except God, our parents are the authors of our life, and they deserve to be the first ones to receive the fruits of our good deeds. Only after we honor our parents can we do anything good for the rest of mankind. If a man does not honor his parents, he will never treat other people with kindness. – St. John Chrysostom #orthodox #orthodoxy #orthodoxchurch #christian #wisdomofthefathers #stjohnchrysostom #stanba #stjoachim #theotokos #honoryourparents A photo posted by Wisdom Of The Fathers (@wisdomofthefathers) on Feb 21, 2016 at 2:07pm PST
