Children are a blessing and a heritage of and from the Lord. God has given them to us. We are responsible to raise them and train in the nurture and admonish of the Lord. The only way we can do that is by spending time with Him and obeying what He has told us.
There is no one way to raise children because they are all different however, there are some guidelines that God has given us in His Word. When we do these things we will walk in a peace and hope that only He can give us.

Marriage is not what it used to be or at the very least compared to the last 10 years or so. Since the beginning of time and in all countries, cultures and communities marriage has been defined as a lifetime union between one man and one woman. However, that definition has been challenged over the past 10 years and now marriage doesn’t hold the sacred place as it did. Marriage wasn’t man’s idea it was God’s idea and He has some very specific things He wanted in a marriage. One was that the marriage would bring life to each partner and honor to God. Marriage was and is the beginning of the family. The family can only succeed when the marriage succeeds.

Life is a merry go round to say the least.We start out with the best of intentions but along the way we get sidetracked and go farther down a road we never intended to go.If we could only know where we got lost then we would go back to that point and change direction.Direction not intention will always determine our destination.
