Family Training

The first time in my church-life I had joined a training called, "family training" last weekend. It was a glorious training indeed. The burden was very glorious too, "to have a God-man family living." What a blessing!

Through all the messages the Lord brought me into a new aura of a Christian life in the church life. My whole view of a family life was re-focused. And the importance of children for the next generation of the Lord's testimony and move was imparted. In the matter of daily living, family atmosphere, relationship and building up between parents and children, and also between husband and wife. All items of training were so practical and involves day to day affair of a human life on this earth. Me and my wife were so blessed.

The Lord also opened my eyes to see the importance and blessing of the children the Lord blessed us with; though we are the physical parent, actually they are God's and we are only the custodians of the Lord's "little lambs." We must be serious in nurturing our children and shepherding them for the Lord. The Lord also exposed me of my failures in many areas of my family life, and my need to amend them, not to give room to the enemy to intrude into our family life. It was a timely message- the speaking of the Lord. 

In the children's exhibition I could see how my children were so precious and how blessed they are. My love and appreciation for my children grew a lot more. And I am reprimanded of the way I mishandled them in their disobedience sometimes. I am learning and am still learning. My prayer is that the Lord be the parent of my children and that they all may be preserved by the Lord in His mercy and grace to be what they should be according to God's ordination for the Lord's testimony and economy. 

Lord, shepherd us to live a God-man family life.
