Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger by the way you treat them.

Ephesians 6:4
Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger by the way you treat them.  Rather,  bring them up with the discipline and instruction that comes from the Lord.

The great duty of children is, to obey their parents.  That obedience includes inward reverence, as well as outward acts, and in every age prosperity has attended those distinguished for obedience to parents.  The duty of parents.  Be not impatient; use no unreasonable severities.  Deal prudently and wisely with children; convince their judgements and work upon their reason.  Bring them up well; under proper and compassionate correction; and in the knowledge of the duty God requires.  Often is this duty neglected, even among professors of the gospel.  Many set their children against religion; but this does not excuse the children's disobedience, though it may be awfully occasion it.  God alone can change the heart, yet he gives his blessing to the good lessons and examples of parents, and answers their prayers.  But those, whose chief anxiety is that their children should be rich and accomplished, whatever becomes of their souls, must not look for the blessing of God.

What is GMO?

-
A GMO , or genetically modified organism, is a plant, animal, microorganism or another organism whose genetic makeup has been modified using recombinant DNA methods (also called gene splicing), gene modification or transgenic technology.  This relatively new science creates unstable combinations of plant, animal, bacterial and viral genes that do not occur in nature or through traditional crossbreeding methods.  Genetic modification affects many of the products we consume on a daily basis.  As the number of GMOs available for commercial use grows every year, the Non-GMO Project works diligently to provide the most accurate, up-to-date standards for non-GMO verification. In order for a product to be Non-GMO Project Verified, its inputs must be evaluated for compliance with our standard, which categorizes inputs into three risk levels. High Risk The input is derived from, contains derivatives of, or is produced through a process involving organisms that are known to be gen

12 Signs Showing You Are Dealing With An Evil Person

-
Depravity is a pervasive factor of modern day survival. Sadly, at times after much effort, we are forced to recognize that the only remedial endeavour available, is from a distance. Evil is defined as the absence of good. Every person has different definitions of evil and goodness. However, in many cases, true evil is very hard to recognize especially for people who always try to find something good in others. We can not ignore that there are truly evil people around us and we need to learn how to notice the signals that show us when someone means nothing else but to harm us. 1. Reality Denial Regardless of how obvious the truth is these people will always deny it. Their truth is the only that matters even though it is the complete opposite of the reality. Their truth is actually a reflection of their wicked, unhealthy thoughts and ideas. 2. Fact Twisting These people are incredible manipulators. They are able to twist any fact that they do not want to accept. They possess the ability

Tarka Dal

-
Lately, lentils have become a tasty staple in my diet. Low in calories and high in nutrition, lentils are the perfect legume to eat in the summer in salads, spreads, for crudité and crackers, and as an item on a vegetarian dinner plate. Some like to always gravitate towards foods that are easy to cook, and lentils are a hassle-free compliment to any meal. Nutty and earthy in flavour, lentils have a high nutritional value that anyone can benefit from by incorporating this healthy legume into their diet. A meal at home is rarely fulfilling if a ladleful, or more, of dal, is not served. It’s one of the most adaptable ingredients in an Indian kitchen. Take any one dal, the masoor dal for instance, and you can find at least five ways to cook it. And that too is seriously underestimation. Ingredients 250g/9oz chana dal (yellow dried split peas), rinsed until the water runs clear 3 tbsp vegetable oil 1 tbsp cumin seeds 1 small onion, chopped 3-4 whole
