Over three weekends in August I was able to make three separate trips to see my kids, several of my grandchildren and all of my great grand children. I don’t get to see them very often so I cherish the time I have with them. The hugs from everyone (big and small) melt my heart.

Families are so important and all of you know very well that Satan is trying to destroy our families and even our children’s lives. We all need to be on guard more and more and instill in our children’s lives godly principles, as well as in our own lives. We can’t get so busy and consumed with our own needs and desires that we neglect one of the most important things we should be doing.

Also, may we exercise the fruit of the Spirit and not let Satan use trivial disagreements or problems destroy our relationships. Love one another and be consumed with the goal of taking all your family members to heaven with you.

I look forward to those grand reunions in heaven where we won’t be separated any more. How about you?
