Your Question:

what will my family do without me?

Answer:

As a husband and father, I often worry about what would happen to my family if I were not around. My wife Susan and I have been married for 19 years, and we have two wonderful children, Joshua and Rebecca. They are still young, 17 and 14 years old, respectively. Without me, they would have to rely on Susan's guidance and support. Susan is a strong and capable woman, but I know that she would feel the weight of responsibility for our children's well-being.

As a pastor, I have seen many families struggle to stay close and connected, especially during times of crisis or transition. It's not easy to keep the family unit strong, especially when children are growing up and developing their own interests and identities. But I believe that with determination and effort, families can stay close and thrive. In fact, I believe that it's one of the most important things we can do as parents and caregivers.

As I read through Scripture, I'm reminded of the importance of family and the role that we play in shaping the next generation. In Genesis 2:24, God says that a man and woman become one flesh when they are married, and that's a beautiful picture of the unity and intimacy that we should strive for in our families. I pray that my family will continue to be a source of love, support, and encouragement to one another, even when I'm not around.
