Families Are Eternal-Sunday Message

The Family unit is essential to God's plan for his children. Within our families we learn how to love, how to serve, and how we should live our lives as good moral people in society. Not everybody has an ideal family life. Some have trauma and neglect to deal with and others have anger and bitterness that follows them for years. The only words of comfort I can give you are these...that your Saviour knows and understands your pain and wants you to be happy. And that there is a God in Heaven who loves you too.

We each have the opportunity to make the lives of our family better each day. By honouring your husband or wife and loving them as you love your children and grandchildren, you set an example of how a family is supposed to be. A family should be a place of trust and love, where we can be ourselves and seek comfort and refuge from the world when we need it. It is my prayer that we will each strive for a family relationship like this...no matter where we are today. Things can only get better if we make the effort to do it. Each positive step we take will bless our lives and the lives of those we love.

And while not everyone in this world will have a perfect family you have to remember this one principle: Families Can Be Together Forever.
