The Heart of a Family

A family is made from lots of different things, screaming kids and lots of children's screams. The number one thing that holds it all together, is when God is sitting in the center. Without his presents it's easy to forget, that life can get tough especially with all the debt. Next to God we need to find forgiveness, it helps when we're going through all that stress. We are all human and tend to make mistakes, having forgiveness helps to keep us in our place. After forgiveness should come the peace, without peace we wouldn't be able to stand this place. When we keep the peace we'll find, it's easy to find a quiet piece of mind. The more we keep the peace we will gain the trust, that's what keeps us all together without going bust. After everyone trusts with all there heart, it's hard for the family to fall apart. Finally the soul core of the heart is love, sent to us straight from the Lord above. Any families love is tender and golden, just like the innocents of our sleeping children. So please remember this one thing my friends, all through life there is something' more important than power and benjamines. That one and simple thing is the heart of a family. Dedicated to my wonderful family: Renee, Emily, Faith and Clairyssa. -JOSH BELL-

Sounds like you really love your family, you're a lucky man! I think in line five you meant presence, not the gift in the box.
