Your Question:

What is the secret to a family's strength when love is put to the test in a world of hurt?

Answer:

As a pastor and a husband, I've learned that the secret to a family's strength when love is put to the test in a world of hurt is to cultivate a deeper understanding of love's complexities. Love is not just about gentleness and tenderness, but also about stern discipline, correction, and guidance. As parents, we must learn to navigate the full spectrum of love, embracing its richness and complexity.

In my own family, I've seen the importance of modeling love and acceptance to my children. As a father, I've made it a point to demonstrate physical intimacy and affection to my children, like holding my daughter Rebecca, which brings me joy and satisfies my mother-love desires. However, I've also learned to set boundaries and hold my children accountable for their actions, teaching them to love and respect one another.

Ultimately, the key to a family's strength lies in their commitment to love and their willingness to seek guidance and wisdom on how to express it. As I pray for my family, I ask God to reveal to me how to demonstrate His love to them in a way that is clear and understandable. I pray that my children will grow in the confidence of being loved and accepted, and that they will learn to communicate love to others in a way that is appropriate and meaningful.
