What Will They See and Hear?

Attending a wedding for the first time, a little girl whispered to her mother, 'Why is the bride dressed in white?' The mother replied, 'Because white is the color of happiness, and today is the happiest day of her life.'  The child thought about this for a moment then said, 'So why is the groom wearing black?'

 

We are given the opportunity to educate our children in every realm of maturity. One of the goals of this series, “Family Matters,” is to help us discover a way through the trials of the day and search for the answers God would lead us to through His Word.

 

Living in constant crisis mode is not the original design of our Designer, and at times we just have to step back and look at our situations through the lenses of the Higher Authority who knows the answers to all things.

 

This Sunday Brad is going to talk about showing the way for children to be reared in a positive way in a negative culture. Our pattern as parents is going to be emulated by our children whether we like it our not. The good news is we have the choice as to what pattern they are going to witness. I hope you can be here this Sunday to love the Lord with all your heart and dismiss the crud of the negative environment which attempts to rob us of the joy we have in Jesus. Have a blessed day and join me in keeping our eyes on the Author of life.
