We usually think of brothers and sisters being born into our families or adopted in love to become our very own.
Our siblings are those with whom we share our lives, and also our dreams, our hopes, and our faith in our Heavenly Father. We are real with one another. Siblings usually know one another inside and out which can be good, but can also lead to many conflicting emotions! However, a deeper, heart-connection develops when love becomes the center of the family. And when that love is focused on our Heavenly Father it brings about a closeness that is beautiful and strong - a bond that cannot easily be broken!
Now, if God is the Head of our Family, ALL of His children become our siblings! And, best of all, Jesus becomes our big brother! Here on Earth, we should begin to respond to one another as brothers and sisters living together under His care. Think of the respect and compassion we would have for one another if we all focused on our loving Father and put Him first in our lives. Imagine nurturing one another and being filled with God’s wisdom as we learn from Him and seek His Will, TOGETHER! How could we feel anything but peace and harmony as we run to Him, together, in prayer? This family, built upon God’s strong foundation, would persevere and thrive!
United together as one family,
Connected in love, led by the Father guiding us
Tenderly, yet with a steadfast hand…
This family will thrive!
Looking to our Father to teach us,
Seeking His direction and His Will for our lives
While learning compassion for others…
This family will thrive!
Knowing our real home is in Heaven,
But striving to bring a bit of Heaven to Earth
We seek to be His messengers…
This family will thrive!
Putting God first and surrendering our own needs,
Letting His love trickle down through us
To embrace all brothers and sisters…
This family will thrive!
