Your Question:
what do i tell my kids when they ask why daddy is getting sicker?
Answer:
When my children ask me why I'm getting sicker, I want to be honest with them and reassure them that I love them. I'll explain to them that sometimes our bodies get sick and need rest, just like how we need to rest when we're tired. I'll tell them that I'm doing my best to take care of myself so I can be healthy again and spend more time with them. It's also essential to reassure them that they are not the cause of my sickness. I'll remind them that they are loved and cherished, and that their behavior or actions have nothing to do with my health. I want them to know that I'm not mad at them or disappointed in them, but rather that I'm just not feeling well. By being open and honest, I hope to build trust and alleviate any fears or worries they may have. As a parent and a pastor, I want to model the behavior and values I teach my children. I'll ask them to pray with me and seek God's guidance and healing. I'll remind them that God is in control and that He loves us and wants us to be healthy and happy. By involving them in the process and teaching them about faith and trust, I hope to help them understand that even when we're not feeling well, God is always with us and loves us unconditionally.
