Family

This is the service of the families…and this is what they are assigned…

ACCORDING TO THE COMMAND OF THE LORD...

 Leviticus, chapter 5;28,31,29. +Joyce Meyers, Everyday Life Bible.

God has given each of us our very own personalized family, (whether it is a family of two or a hundred; or a family of special pets; or a family in a special place…etc.), and as a Christ follower YOU have the responsibility of guiding your family to things that will not only bring joy inside your family walls,, but will guide others; the lost, dark, hurting, sad, to experience the love of Christ. (Oh, and for those of you that can say that you are completely, 100%, alone, then I suggest you start praying for guidance, step out in faith, and begin to engage. God did NOT make you to be alone! Refer to page 1 of Genesis and read from there).  So, why don’t you find ways to (unknowingly) spread the love of Christ, not just to your own loved ones, but to every single person around you? My goodness, there are so many hurting people that do not know, or have never noticed the Spirit of Jesus. This isn’t hard to do either, and here are some simple steps you can take~ ASAP! (Remember you and your family may be the difference of life or death to another person!):

First;: pray, without ceasing, for guidance: Next: begin to notice what you and your family do together that fills you all with light, love, hope, peace, and meaning: Finally; begin to invite someone, engaging, etc.,others to join in on your family’s joyous moments (ex., eating, hiking, camping, movie night, …whatever you and your family love doing together.)

Now sit back and watch! Whomever you invite, engage, etc., will immediately notice something brightly different about you all; something they want, something that, even for a brief second, will brighten their day, help them feel an inkling of joy.  You and your family may just be their first glimpse of sweet Jesus himself! WOW.

My goodness, not only will these draw your “not-so-sure” family members closer to Christ ~ which, by the way, will build your family bond so strong that it becomes unbreakable by anything, anyone, and/or any circumstance ~but, it will be your family effort of spreading the amazing power of Jesus Christ to so many lost, hurting, suffering, hopeless, scared, and even the un-loveable, soles…How AWESOME is this? 

YOU AND YOUR FAMILY HOOK ‘EM, AND FROM THERE, JESUS WILL REEL THEM IN.
