Meditation: Do you have a happy family life?
Confession of Faith: Apostles' Creed
Text: “It is better to have a dry loaf of bread and to be at peace than to have a house full of flesh and stripe” (Proverbs 17:1).
Word: In order to build a harmonious family, we must acquire people rather than material things. When there is no material, there is a conflict, and when there is a lot of material, there is a conflict. We must live according to values that value people more than material things.
As Abram yielded, the quarrel between Abram and Lot and Abram's shepherds and Lot's shepherds ended (Genesis 13:8-9). Abram gained man rather than material things. When Abram prioritized people over material things, it may seem like a loss at first glance, but it is not. God promised Abram this blessing. “Lift up your eyes and look from where you are, east, west, north and south, and I will give you and your descendants the land you see, and it will last forever” (Genesis 13:14-15).
There is no motto as good as the motto, 'Family harmony, everything happens when the family is harmonious'. In order to establish a harmonious family, you have to throw away the gossip. In terms of the relationship between husband and wife, quarrels arise in the family because they do not properly act as husbands or because their wives are ripped off. Maravel Morgan had been raking in her husband for six years before discovering that she had been nagging her husband like a stepmother.
The husband had no way of feeling romance with his stepmother. So Morgan bit her lip to prevent the gourmet from coming out of her mouth. Then that evening, my husband cleaned up the garbage even though my husband did not nagging me to take it out.
The family is the driving force and foundation of society. A US News and World Report survey of millionaires in the United States found that the typical millionaire is someone who works 8 to 10 hours a day for 30 years and lives with their first wife. Additionally, a New York-based institute surveyed 1,365 vice presidents and found that 87% lived with their first wife and 92% were raised in two-parent families (not single or single mothers).
Prayer: Heavenly Father. May we build a happy family by winning people rather than material things, striving for reconciliation rather than stripe, and giving praise and encouragement rather than scratching. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
