Rebel without a Cause

They call it ‘rebel without a cause’ when the teenagers have twisted behavior while they are in puberty.

I was no exception.

My mom had hard times raising four children all alone. Even now my face turns red of thinking of how I rebelled against her.

I talked back at her when things didn’t turn out the way I wanted to be, and even though I knew mom’s heart of saying things because she cared about me, I was just distorted.

While having an argument with my mom, I said things that stabbed her like a dagger.

Out of it all, there’s something that I said which hurt my mom most..


“Mom, what did you do for me anyways?”

If I said this, mom couldn’t say anything but only dropped her face down. So that is why I said it thought lessly.

Thinking of how my mom must have felt, I feel so sorry that I want to crawl under arock.

She loved me before I was born. I wasn’t been able to do anything, and for me she clothed me, fed me, and took care of me all night when I was sick.

Everyday for 365 days; a year, she has gone to so much trouble for me, and those words were too cruel for her.

After receiving the truth, and realizing that I am a sinner who betrayed Heavenly Mother’s love, I recollected my days of puberty.

At that time, I didn’t know why I hurt her and went against my mom, but now I realize.

That image was a partial of me sinning against Heavenly Mother.

I didn’t know how to thank Heavenly Mother who loved me with Her whole heart, and I was a sinner who forgot about Her grace.

Can I also be forgiven?

Though I am a sinner who deserves to die, just because I am her child, I am in debted to her.

I will never again have faith of puberty that will break Mother’s heart.

Thank you Mother. I love you.
