Last night I had the privilege of sitting in with the youth listening to "Truth Project" with tears flowing down my face. We looked at "The Family", the Social order of God. At least I attempted to understand God and Why God has designed life in some kind of order. I am standing in awe of God and things just seem to make since when someone else explains things to me on behalf of Gods word and the truth of the meaning of scripture.
When we spoke of Family, My heart melts, breaks, and trembles with fear with how I see family today or should I say lack of!! What sin has done to the generations and the lies that we have bought into and have just taken as "it's the way that it is"!! Why?? Why have we done so with a shrug of the shoulder and continue with a limp in our walk and turn to someone other than ourselves to straighten out some of this mess!! Then replace it with truth to try on some level to reclaim the "Lost Families" of today and most importantly the next generation that we "generation X "are raising. Have we even attempted to see or grasp what has happened to the Family and try not to lose heart over this matter, yet do something in our own families to reclaim and glorify God with His meaning of life in the family. Which is HUGE! Why...because family is everywhere, even in the church. It is the moment we step out our doors! Yet even with saying and trying to put this learning experience to some kind of action. I myself am convicted and guilty of falling into the lie that this is just the way that life is! I am an independent woman and don't need a Husband to submit to yet I'm married! Oh..the irony of that matter!
I know too well how divorce leaves in it's path destruction of the heart. Pain that will ache until Jesus takes me home!! How I await that day!
With this I know and believe that I with the Lord can reclaim the lost and stolen years with God and change My family!! Oh..what a mess we have created!! The eyes of our children are crying out!! May I contuine to strive on this road i'm traveling for the better of the the "next generation" with leaving a legacy that matters and that is of Jesus and the Truth of His word!!!
