Day 14

Things I Need to Tell My Husband

Day14

"I Treasure Our family."

But as for me and my family, we will serve the LORD.”

Joshua 24:15

I guess it's ironic that yesterday I wrote about time and today I am writing about family.

I lost a friend and mentor today. After fighting cancer with all her might for 22 months The Lord took her home today. She was a minister's wife, a mother, a grandmother, she ministered in song and in word, and served the Lord with all of her might. Kathy Isaacs was only 48 years old. Kathy loved her family. She did not have to tell you, you saw it. She always put her family ahead of herself,  She knew God wanted her to be a wife and mother first. She treasured her family and now  they will never be the same.

Our families are a priceless treasure from God. Don't rush through the day without taking notice of just how blessed you are. The pressure of this life is intense. We live in a busy world that demands our time and raising a family is a big job. Let's put God in the center of our family. Make sure you take time to worship Him, praise Him, love Him, and trust Him together. The next time your family life becomes stressful remember that those people you love so much are on temporary loan from God.  Tell your husband that you treasure the family you and him have together. Tell God you are thankful for His gift of family. Then say a prayer for the Isaac's family.
