Family

Thanking God for family, and the blessing of enjoying each other. Our family was together for the holiday weekend. What fun. I remember when my dad was still living the final song after our family was together before leaving was "I'm so glad I'm a part of the family of God." My family still sings it. It has become a tradition.

God's family is also a blessing. Can you imagine living life without your spiritual family? Without an encouraging word? Without the blessing of prayer with other believers? We are a part of God's family. We are each a different part of His ministry but all serving for the same purpose—for His glory.

Or have you amputated yourself from family? From relationships? That kind of amputation would be worse than a physical amputation. We need each other. God intended for us to be family. I find it interesting how God put so much variety into families. We have 2 children, so different from each other. The 3 grandchildren are all very different from each other. Yet we are family.

Praise God for family. Look for the good in your family. Look for the positive and dwell on that instead of the negative things you so dislike.

Closing thought: The world will know who Jesus is by the love we have for each other.

God bless you
