The Art of Giving.
What does the bible say about family love. But real love is not dependent on feelings. Many people say that the first thing they want to do when they arrive in heaven is see all their friends and loved ones who have passed on before them. How much influence do you have in your family.
Husbands love your wives just as Christ loved the church and gave himself for her Ephesians 525 Love. Parents are to raise godly children who will be the next generation of those who love the Lord with all their hearts Proverbs 226. See what great love the Father has lavished on us that we should be called children of God.
It is about so much more than how I feel about someone. He who does not love does not know God for God is love 1 John 48. The examples of Rahab and Achan provide timeless lessons about how we can impact our loved ones.
The ideal family has a bond built on love and one that has survived adversity. In a fallen world those we should love the mostour familiesoften become the ones we fight with the most. The concept of family is extremely important in the Bible both in a physical sense and in a theological sense.
Through the difficult and intense moments in our life it is our family similarly to God that can provide comfort and reassurance. Whether it is romantic love a member of my family a friend a co-worker so often love is given and received based on what I myself get out of it. Husbands are to love their wives as Christ loves the church Ephesians 525.
Family problems are nothing new. The concept of family was introduced in the very beginning as we see in Genesis 128 God blessed them and said to them Be fruitful and increase in number. When we think of love its easy to think about good feelings.
