PEACE BEGINS WITH THE FAMILY UNIT

 

     PEACE BEGINS WITH THE 

                  FAMILY UNIT

“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” [Proverbs 22:6].

*

A strong family is the glue binding each individual to the world.

Family togetherness is a driving force and should be our goal.

Family prayer is both a religious and relational practice.

Prayer provides opportunities to express mutual love and forgiveness.

*

When you fall in life, your family should be there to catch you.

Choose to uplift each other and make prayer a positive experience too.

Be considerate of each other and refrain from criticizing the other.

Prayer is about intimacy with the Lord and with one another.

*

Children mimic their parent’s behaviour.

Parents should conduct themselves in a Godly manner.

Children are the future of our nation.

Let us train them for God’s eternal kingdom.
