The family is the most important social structure of any society. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a perfect family. There are, however, principles that, if followed, Will help each family to be all that God intended it to be.
1. LOVE -
If we truly love our family, we would be willing to lay down our lives so that they might live. The true test, however, is if we lay down our rights and demands on others in everyday situations of life. Love is proven not just by words we say, but also by our actions.
2. RESPECT -
Family members must show respect for each other, even when there is disagreement on a particular matter. This is where healthy communication plays an important role.
3. COMMITMENT -
No matter what happens, commitment is necessary for a family to survive. Many voices in contemporary society that tell us if a marriage is not working, just get out. But this is not the solution. Help can be found through prayer, studying God's Word, and the wise counsel of those who love God.
4. FORGIVENESS -
Unresolved conflicts Will often be reflected later in the relationship you have with your family. Ask forgiveness of those you have offended, and forgive those who have offended you, no matter how deeply you have been hurt. Freedom comes when we learn to forgive others in the same way that God has forgiven us.
Remember - A Family who prays together stays together forever.
Thanks for spending your valuable time for reading. Share this & be a blessing to others.
God Bless You. :)
