Family will always be family, I know I can rely on my family to always be there for me. Friends come and go but family is forever. God has richly blessed me with an amazing family! I can't find the words to express just how blessed I am with my family! We can get frustrated with each other and fight, but we will always be looking out for each other! We understand each other, we say the same things and do things the same way. In a strange crowd I know that I won't be alone. This is especially true with my sisters. We occasionally say the same things at the same time and we understand each other with a glance. If I ever get married I know that I will have my sisters standing up with me, because those who stand up with you are the ones who keep you accountable in your marriage and I know that my sisters would do that. My parents care about me, they notice how I dress and how I act, sometimes they might seem a little over protective, but I know they do it because they want to protect me and they want what is best for me! I have one brother, we are lucky if we see him for three weeks in a year! But when we talk or see each other, he goes out of his way to bless us. The best thing about my family is that we are Christ centered. I have been blessed with knowing that each member of my family will be in heaven, together for eternity!
I know that some can't say the same about their family, but I believe that God has given you your family for a special reason. I believe that there are three things we should do for our family, even if we aren't proud of them, can't stand them, or even if they don't deserve it. Never speak down about your family in front of others, always lift them up even if they don't deserve it. Never intentionally hurt your family, even if they have hurt you. And ALWAYS show them love, even if they don't show you love.
If it seems like you have no family on earth, maybe your family is gone or they left you or whatever the case may be, remember that God is your heavenly Father and is always with you. Also remember that as a christian you are a part of the body of Christ and therefore are part of a great family of believers, all children of God. That makes me your sister! I love belonging to this great family! And if you have never experienced a family reunion on earth, just wait for the huge family reunion we will have in Heaven one day when we will see our Father face to face! We should all thank the Lord for blessing us with this glorious family and for accepting us into His family!
