| Families of Faith By Billy Graham “Through wisdom a house is built, And by understanding it is established.” —Proverbs 24:3, NKJV The family is the most important institution in the world. It was God’s idea in the first place. It was not the invention of sociologists or economists or government bureaucrats who decided it would make society operate more smoothly. Families existed before cities and governments, before written languages, nations, temples, and churches. In the home, character and integrity are formed, values are made clear, and goals are set. These last a lifetime. And if they aren’t formed correctly, that, too, will result in patterns—bad patterns—that last a lifetime, if God doesn’t intervene. Today, Satan is attacking the family as never before. But what are our defenses against such attacks? As always, our best defense is the Word of God. Read the Bible together as a family. Have family devotions. Pray for one another daily by name. Be on guard against the forces that tend to pull families apart today. And most of all, commit your marriage to Christ, and make Him the center of your home—and your life.  Hope for TodayWith every new invention and technological advancement, time and attention are being taken away from the family. This lack of togetherness weakens the foundation and faith of the family unit. What is the state of your family? | ||
