Note: On November 14, Dae Mo Nim spoke to the pregnant sisters of the 119th Chung Pyung 40-Day Workshop. Dae Mo Nim emphasized offering as much sincere dedication when raising a child as you are doing so now for this workshop.
You pregnant sisters are offering so much sincere dedication while attending the Chung Pyung 40-day Workshop; but it's also important for you to offer sincere dedication when you raise your child. It doesn't mean that you cannot educate your child because it's too small. Rather education is more important when the child is small. To educate the child better, the lifestyle of the parents must improve.
A Diligent Lifestyle
A mother must first reorganize herself and the family. To put the family in order means to properly organize things in the house. The husband will feel uncomfortable when he returns home after work and sees his house dirty. It's also hard to sustain the child's mental state. The mother must have the mindset to sacrifice herself and be diligent. Sacrifice and diligence is love.
The mother must wake up early every morning and start the day by first wearing nice clothes. Only when you show proper posture to your husband will the relationship with him develop.
After organizing yourself, you must prepare breakfast for your husband. Thus, with your dedication, your husband is able to fully work outside.
After saying goodbye to your family you cannot take a nap just because your small children are sleeping. The mother must do housework while the children are asleep.
An organization, based on a business policy, works towards its goal, housework is the same. Given the same job, there are people who do it fast and people who do it slow. A person who uses their head is a person who can plan the job and see what he (she) has to do afterwards, that's the reason for his (hers) fast performance.
That is why you must plan carefully your housework. Sometimes something might happen without notice and you are left without any choice but to go outside. If you hadn't finished the housework then your house remains untidy. Having a neat house at all times is indeed the key for a good family education and will be established to your husband and children's lifestyle.
Good Lifestyle
You must become mothers who can play and have conversations with your children after you have finished all the housework. Also, if your child has done something wrong, if it's needed, you must teach them by hitting them.
You must develop a habit for your children to take a bath and wash their bodies before they sleep. Not just washing their faces but bathing them and washing their whole bodies before they go to sleep.
You must teach them not to leave any clothes on the floor before they take a bath but put it in the washing machine and prepare clothes neatly for after bath. You must teach them to return things, such as books, to their original place, like book shelves, as well as toys, school things and etc. If the parents practice such actions the children will follow.
Educate the Child's Life of Faith
It is wrong to think and to raise a child with the thought, 'My child is a 2nd Generation he (she) will have a proper life of faith when he (she) matures.' You must raise a child and properly teach them how to have a proper life of faith. It is too late to teach your child about life of faith when he (she) reaches adolescence.
You must become a mother talks the words of God when you feed your child and when you read books to your child. Don't think that because they are small children that they won't understand, you must teach them and raise them with words of God.
Also, it is important for your child to know the most precious place of his (her) body is the sexual organ. Give a purity education so that they will think preciously about it since young age.
The Importance of Chung Pyung 40-Day Special Workshop
When the unborn child is in the womb of the mother, health and destiny is being made. The characteristic is also being created while it's in the womb. That is why sincere dedication is important during pregnancy.
You must understand the Chung Pyung 40-Day Special Workshop is a place where you can remove any spiritual problems as well as difficult problems relating to the character and illness beforehand. You must make a situation where your child can be born without any inherited problems. That is why, it is better to attend the Chung Pyung 40-Day Special Workshop once again.
The Grace of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Chungshim International Hospital
It is also better to give birth to a child in Chungshim International Hospital. The Chungshim International Hospital knows God's Principle of Creation, therefore, will support you so that you can give birth naturally.
After you give birth, it's very painful since your uterus tries to return to its original position. That is also a pain experienced commonly after birth; however, at Chungshim International Hospital the angels help this process so that you experience no pain.
The name for your child is really important. For those babies that are born in Chungshim International Hospital I will either select a name from a list that the parents bring or if there isn't a good name there I will name the child.
I hope that you know that such a workshop for pregnant sisters exists in Chung Pyung 40-Day Special Workshop and that you enter the workshop with a heart of gratitude.
