Honour Your Sister

OK, so you honour your father and mother, that’s what we are told to do in the Bible, but it doesn’t say you have to honour your rotten little sister when she is mean and yucky and she . . ooops, . . where was I?

What does God expect from us when dealing with our siblings?

Jenna: Your fault, you’re always bugging me!

Jenna starts to cry

Rick: Cry baby!

Jenna: Mom! . . . . . Rick is bugging me again!
