Family~A Beautiful Thing

My dad, mom, me and little sister


There's nothing more beautiful in my eyes than a man who is priest of his home, a loving, faithful wife, and their precious little children sitting together in God's house worshiping Him.  God made and ordained the family.  It was His idea, therefore, it was a God idea-a good idea.

God created a man and a woman to live together in a covenant relationship with each other with total devotion to Him.  That's the Biblical way.  With Him as the center of that relationship, all is right with the world.  Children are happy and secure.  When earthly father's lead in the ways of God and love their wives as Christ loved the church, then children have a model, a concept of what their Heavenly Father is like.  They see that God is love and God is good.

My heart is so burdened today for the family.  There are broken families all around us lying in ruins.  Why?  Because individuals make choices.  They make selfish choices.  It's about "me" in this day and age.  That's why we have millions of babies aborted, divorce is rampant, people are addicted to drugs, pornography.

The good news is you can change!  When individuals humbly bow and admit they need a Savior, who is Christ Jesus, He can restore that individual back to Him and thus restore the family.    When America has strong families, America will be strong.
