LIVING BEYOND EXCUSES: Devotion To Family.

God wants us to be Christians biblically, following His examples and not Christians culturally, following or yielding to tradition. He wants us to love unconditionally.

Understand that the family occupies a pivotal place in the society, the church inclusive. It is the bedrock of any community. When the family is healthy, the church will be healthy. It is God’s desire that we enjoy our family life.

Some pains and problems we go through at times are because of some little things we have not given our attention to, some because we have allowed cultural beliefs to place a limit on us.

Loving unconditionally will unlock the door to greater happiness in our families if we give our attention to it.

Unconditional Love:

To receive and love the other person no matter what, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health. It is the commitment that says I will stay with you, I will always love u no matter what.
