Jesus Please Bless Our Family

Jesus, Please Bless Our Family! I remember growing up in a Christian family. We were content, joyful and quite happy. Things were "going along rather well." We loved each other... more than words could tell. I think of the special love between mom and dad. As my parents... I was proud and glad! Over the years that rolled on by. Something happened. I don't know why. Our deep love became replaced with "excuses." Our relationships filed with harsh words and bruises. This family... I once held so close to my heart. Began to "unravel and fall apart." Our love for another became bitter and cold. Even to the day we're "growing old." Everywhere... it is evident and appearing. The family as a unit is disappearing. We must come together and remove all bitterness. And walk in God's love and his forgiveness! We must appreciate one another-- in spite of our faults! Standing together on Godly principles brings good results! It we insist on "going our separate ways." We'll be sorry "one of these days!" This family is what God brought together. It needs to be rooted in love! Now and forever! HIS love needs to be the glue that binds us as one! Blessing every mom, dad, daughter and son! By Jim Pemberton 05/04/15
