Title: Little Fox in the Home (May 14)
Contents
(…) A healthy family is a family that establishes the foundation of service. The Bible testifies that the family was created by God. Jesus was also born into a family. God established the church to bless families. The church was also established later than the home. The church was established to help families. If the head of the family comes to church, receives grace, and the church life goes well, the family will be healthy and the church will be beautiful.(…)
Today's text tells us that the vineyard is in full bloom, but a little fox disturbs the flower garden.(…) This little fox is said to be in the home and in the church. Little fox. Not a big fox. When a great test comes to the church or family, our faith improves and we unite. But where there is the slightest misunderstanding or trivial complaint, the little fox appears.
Today's text is to catch the little fox that destroys the vineyard of love. What is the lesson for us? Today's modern people are all disrespecting the family and the church. Many people live away from home and church. Boredom, doubts, loss of self, resentment and complaints all start here.(…)
What is the fox in our household today?
① The foxes in the home and in the church have many demands and many things they want.
When sick, they do not move, they demand a lot and complain a lot. I can't be happy if my home has a lot to look for and a lot to ask for. The church and the family are quick to take care of each other's needs, and to give. When you give, you are full of joy.(…) Your family and church are places where you care for others. A caring child grows up beautifully.(…) If home education is successful, school education can also be successful. Go home and play with the kids. Do not instruct them to study, but participate in the study together. Enjoy your child's favorite shows together. Don't just ask your child, give him time to be together. In order to study well, you have to keep your mother's position. Children are to take the place of children, and husbands are to keep the place of husbands. I do not protect my position and raise a fox if I ask for it.
② Trying to live easily is the fox of faith and family life.
Faith and family life cannot bear fruit easily. Weddings are nice, but family life is a narrow road. Modern people want to live too easily, get married easily, and earn money easily. There is no truth in easy things. There are big fish only in the deep sea. The Lord said that we must not go on the broad road. A person who does whatever he wants and lives without thinking can never be happy. Faith is unfruitful and cannot be blessed.(…)
③ Do not rush.
Homes and churches need long-term patience. After putting the seeds in the ground and covering them with soil, you have to wait and be patient for them to sprout. You also have to put the lid on and wait for the wine. Church life is ultimately about serving and pleasing God. I am not moving churches according to the program, I am going into effect.
In every home today, there is a little fox that corrodes spiritual peace. If you live with gratitude, the little fox runs away. If you do well in your church life, you can't take advantage of the fox. Reduce your demands, be considerate and be patient. Amen.
