Family Matters

            Isn’t it amazing that we all come from a family?  Everyone in heaven and on earth have this specific trait in common.  Our families are very important to us.  So it makes great sense to pay particular attention to our involvement in them.  Making our family the very best it can be, should be of the utmost importance to us.

            The philosophers of yesteryear were known as those men and women who were considered wise in the lives of people at that time.  That wisdom flows down to us to guide us in becoming the very best we can be.  Take the words of Socrates to heart, considering the matter at hand of family issues: “If I would get to the highest place in Athens, I would lift up my voice to say, ‘What mean ye, fellow citizens, that ye turn every stone to scrape wealth together, and take so little care of children to who ye must one day relinquish all?’”  Thus, you must be wise in handling family matters.  Part of which is your finances.  In regards to finances, an unknown author once stated: “I am too rich to buy cheap.”  Meaning, buy the best you can afford and in the long haul, you will save money.

Being a Christian, you are in the family of God.  The Holy Bible in an Instruction Book explaining how to live your best for your family.  Among the myriad of Holy Bible verses referring to the family, consider the following: “For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth, derives its name”.  And “every family in heaven and earth refers to every family in the era of history.

            Do you have a personal relationship with Christ?  If not, settle that right now with Christ.  Do not delay. Do it right now.  To have the best family starts with that decision!
