FAMILIES

Families are an essential part of society. A family is the basis for the ongoing survival of human beings. Human beings need a family to survive. They are nurtured and loved within families. There is nothing that can replace a family. This is why the family is being attacked. Alternative forms of family are being tried. Conflicts will occur as long as individuals have a say. A family that is a mass will degenerate because it has no voice. A voiceless family lives in a vacuum. It cannot deal with outside pressures. It will succumb to outside pressures. Nothing can replace a family. Other forms of support can provide some relief but cannot replace a family. There is a biological and emotional bond that keeps a family together. This bond is rooted in a covenant relationship between a man and his wife. This relationship binds the individuals under God and is a spiritual union. Although this union is primary in this world it also is vital for spiritual nourishment and in eternity. Families that grow together will nourish each other and help each other. Many do not have a family because of break ups. This is not the ideal but God has a purpose for each family. Invest in your family and reap benefits in years to come.
