This is a blog that discusses marriage, parenting and life in general from a Christian view. Too much of what we read in the media and study in classes looks at life simply from the secular view. I think we need to get back to some basics about the important things in life. If we can rebuild the family then we can begin to see out nation rebuild also. I hope you will enjoy the writings to come and gain some insight to yourself. :)
“The family is the corner stone of our society. More than any other force it shapes the attitude, the hopes, the ambitions, and the values of the child. And when the family collapses it is the children that are usually damaged. When it happens on a massive scale the community itself is crippled. So, unless we work to strengthen the family, to create conditions under which most parents will stay together, all the rest — schools, playgrounds, and public assitance, and private concern — will never be enough.”-Lyndon Baines Johnson
God instituted the family from the beginning of time. Even though this view is not popular today, there is a God-given order for life. God, family, church--that is the way things were established. If we put God first in our lives then the family and the church will both be stronger. We NEED strong families today. We need husbands and wives who stay the course even when the waters are rough. Life is never easy for anybody. Our focus determines how much we enjoy the journey.
