Specific Diet

 

November 16

SPECIFIC DIET – We know of mothers who  have been asked to make some drastic adjustments in their eating pattern, when they are pregnant. For example, they are given strict warnings against consuming alcohol, if they wish to give birth to a well, strong and healthy baby. But there are times when, for spiritual reasons mothers are to abstain from certain practices and foods. Such was the case with the mother of Samson. Because he was to be a Nazarite, she had to have a new diet. Sometimes, as spiritual parents, you have to make adjustments to your spiritual eating to accommodate the one to whom you are to give birth in the Lord.

 

Teach me to be a true spiritual parent, with joy, understanding and grace. Amen!

Read Judges 13: 3 - 5
