Having family devotions is the most important thing you can do to strengthen your
family.
An old-time preacher once said, "A child
can go to hell over the wall of family altar, but it is awfully hard for him
to."
This time together helps iron out all the hurts, anger, frustrations, and
misunderstandings the day has brought to each family member. Itīs a time to draw
close to God and each other. It's a bond your children will continue to draw
strength from, even when they are adults.
Proverbs 22:6
"Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is
old, he will not depart from it."
As difficult it can be to find this time together as your children increase in
age, do all you can to maintain what well may turn out to be a memorial stone for
the entire life of your children.
God bless you and your family as you find time with God. |
