Fun in the sun?
Stronger and Stronger
In my previous posts, we talked about things that strengthen families.
I wanted to continue with that theme.
You know what also helps to strengthen families?
Family Fun
The Family: A Proclamation to the World teaches us,
“Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on principles of faith,
prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion,
work, and wholesome recreational activities.”
Do you hear me?
Spending time with your family can actually strengthen your family!
I don’t want you to ever feel like you’re doing nothing when you are on a getaway with your family.
Trips, not your thing that’s ok.
You don’t even have to leave your house.
It doesn’t matter what your family enjoys.
What is important is that you do it together as a family.
“Our free time should be used wisely to create the best possible life,
to promote individual growth and strengthen families.
Meaningful recreation does not just happen; it must be prepared for, cultivated,
and privately defended.”
Bottom line. If we want to strengthen our families we have to put in the TIME.
The quoted selection and themes are from my textbook;
