Thank YOU LORD!
Bill Graham said, “Parents, pray that God may crown your home with grace and mercy. In searching for ways to bridge the generation gap, there is no doubt that we, as parents, will have to practice what we preach, by striving more to bring our conduct into line with our code of beliefs.” AMEN!
I also go back to what Tom sent in a few days ago, and I think this will be the third time I have posted this, but the Lord says post it again because it is so profound……
I heard a man say that he learned more as a parent than he ever learned from his parents. I learn so much from my children and from being a parent to my children.
We must be Salt and Light in our own homes.
One of the main reasons America is struggling is because of the problems we find in families.
We must help families as the Body of Christ.
Here our a few more thoughts from Billy Graham…….
Only God Himself fully appreciates the influence of a Christian Mother in the molding of character in her children.
Then influence of a mother upon the lives of her children cannot be measured. They know and absorb her example and attitudes when it comes to questions of honesty, temperance, kindness, and industry.
Many parents preach to their children but do not set good examples. Parents want the children to do as they say, not as they do.
Parenting is the most important responsibility most of us will ever face, and none of us does it perfectly.
What a blessing it is for parents to BELIEVE in their children! AMEN! AMEN!
Wise words from Billy.
I wish I had been a better parent when the kid’s were growing up, talking too much maybe, giving out to much advise at times, not having enough patience ……now I find myself praying more and just listening more……..somehow the Kid’s survived and are thriving!
Sharon has been and is the stabilizing force in the home.
Just like my Mom, Ruth was.
The Lord showed me this scripture…….
Honest, good hearted people who hear God’s word, cling to it, and patiently produce a huge harvest.
That’s from Luke 8:15
This morning let us life up all families to the Lord, the families that are struggling so much, the families that have one parent at home, the families that the Dad has walked out on, the families that have a druggie for a Mom or Daddy. Let us hold up these families this day and all days. Let us as the Body of Christ reach out to these families and be Salt and Light. Let us show them the love of Jesus Christ, Let us be Christ like.
My prayer this morning is that you will share this CUP with many.
My prayer also this morning is that you will not rush this CUP, that you will pray over these writings, that they will be absorbed into your heart and soul, and that they will help bring you closer to God and your Children.
When God created humans, he designed us to live in families. Family relationships, therefore, are important to God. Even the church, the universal body of believers, is called the family of God. When we receive God’s Spirit at salvation, we are adopted into his family. This collection of Bible verses about family will help you focus on the various relational aspects of a godly family unit.

So an elder must be a man whose life is above reproach. He must be faithful to his wife. He must exercise self-control, live wisely, and have a good reputation. He must enjoy having guests in his home, and he must be able to teach. He must not be a heavy drinker or be violent. He must be gentle, not quarrelsome, and not love money. He must manage his own family well, having children who respect and obey him. For if a man cannot manage his own household, how can he take care of God’s church? (NLT)
1 Timothy 5:8
But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. (NASB)

Failure isn’t fatal — it’s normal! Just look around. All of us mess up from time to time. Somebody recently gave me a book, “The (Incomplete) Book of Failures: The Official Handbook of the Not-Terribly-Good Club of Great Britain.” When they printed the book, they forgot to print the first two pages and had to add it later. Even the book was a failure!
School starts in the Philippines in about 2 weeks. There is still time for you to sponsor children and help them get an education and break the cycle of poverty. You can change a life. See below. May 18, 2012. There is something you have done before which was very enjoyable. You want to do it again and wonder if it will ever happen. It was a challenge then and probably will continue to be. Right now you aren’t sure you can still carry it through. You have heard it said and believe it to be true, “It is better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all.” And you are willing to try again. I am telling you don’t let the dream die. Don’t give up and don’t allow disappointment to take you over. Part of the joy of reaching your goal is the anticipation. Hebrews 12:1 (NAB) “Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us rid ourselves of every burden and sin that clings to us and persevere in running the race that lies before us.” Bev Robinson Scroll down to see “Photo of the Day” from our ministry to children in the Philippines. May 18, 2012. Become aware of the complete package I established within you. Upon your conversion to Christianity, you became a fully equipped model as a follower of mine. You didn’t have the full knowledge of who you are and to whom you belong. Neither did you have understanding of the Scriptures. It’s somewhat like purchasing a new top of the line, state of the art automobile. Though you possess the keys and can drive the vehicle, you don’t fully comprehend all the features it has, unless you read the owner’s manual. You have all the tools you need to live life to the fullest. You are equipped. Utilize who I have made you to be. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NASB) “All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.” Kevin Robinson Let’s get our Medical bag from Dr. Joe……….
