Family Time

While playing at the park with my granddaughter it was a joy to see so many families outside enjoying quality time. Daddy’s were playing tag, pushing the swing or monitoring the slide n climb area. Mommies and extended family were preparing the food while others started up the barbeque.


Having that quality time…one on one…breaking bread together…is a thank you Lord time. When living a life of excellence and obedience to God our lives become more meaningful and satisfactory and our Lord blesses our activities.


And yet, life can be distracted from what is important for our families and us by allowing world views or selfishness to come before God. God is our ultimate family member and having quality time with Him is the day’s blessing.


Let’s lovingly plan to spend time with God and Jesus Christ. Bring the glory of God into your family, which allows God to bless your endeavors and keep you from societal views which may damage your time spent with our Lord.


Proverbs 3 :3-4 Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man.


Being a role model for our children and grandchildren is an investment that cannot be wasted; we set the standards for our families and the goals of an earthly life that leads to our heavenly life. Loving God and being in His presence guides us to fulfillment, contentment and joy.


Praise God, rejoice in our Lord Jesus Christ and be filled with the Holy Spirit during your “quality time”.


Smiles & Blessings,
