“FAMILY!”
Ephesians 3:14-15
“For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,”
A few weeks ago my granddaughter’s husband was quizzing me on our family history. Off the top of my head, I was able to share what I could remember back several generations. That started me thinking about spiritual families.
To me, a spiritual family is more important than a physical family. It is not that our earthly/biological families do not matter, but they are temporal and exist for only a short period of time. Our spiritual family is from God and will remain for all of eternity.
Our spiritual family tree goes back to God Himself. We are not the result of some primordial sludge that somehow evolved. Our roots go back to the hand of God who is the Creator of all things and for Whom all things are named.
Since we have such a noble family tree, we need to live in such a manner that will bring honor to the family. We do that by spending quality time with other members of the family and encouraging each other to keep on keeping on until we reach that wonderful family reunion in heaven!
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
