GIORNO 6 DI 6

Restored Family  

Have you ever considered the lengths you would go to in order to protect your family from harm? What would you do if you came home to discover a burglar in your bedroom? What would you do if the man in front of you in the bank line pulled a gun?

The adventurous side of a man wants to believe he is ready to act, able to protect, and always empowered to win and save the day. When it’s regarding the safety of your family or children, real men would stop at nothing to ensure their safety. What about the attacks of the Evil One? Are you ready and willing to fight or are you asleep at the wheel? Do you recognize the spiritual attacks of your enemy to be as dangerous or even more so than being kidnapped or mugged?

Married men should consider the role they play in the leadership and protection of their families physically and spiritually. Unmarried men may consider the role they play as sons, especially the sons of aging parents. They should also remember that the decisions they make now as a single man will have a profound effect on their potential future as husbands and fathers.

The breakdown of the family in our world is overwhelming. Fathers are abdicating their roles and responsibilities and mothers are left with burdens too difficult to bear on their own. Families are under attack and must be protected. 

The concept of family is woven throughout Scripture. God issues a call and a challenge to a special people, to create for Himself a family. He instructs them on how they are to relate to one another as His representatives. He disciplines them when they sin. He uses the image of fathers and children while offering the world a picture of His divine love. How we operate in the context of our families says much about how we follow God. 

This world is so distorted. God’s Word tells us that training and instruction are the alternatives to stirring up anger in our kids. The world’s methodology would have you believe that an overdose of training and instruction angers kids most. The world says to let them find who they are. God’s Word tells us to teach them who to be. The world says that discipline harms their esteem. The Bible says that discipline demonstrates love.
