TODAY'S FOOD FOR THE SOUL
1 Corinthians 12: 14-26
TODAY'S RHEMA 1 Corinthians 12:18 "But in fact God has placed the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be."
If you live in a country which has four seasons, you can see an immense flock of snow geese fly to the south in the late autumn to avoid winter. They take flight beautifully and orderly in "V" formation. But who knows that there's a beautiful relation behind the amazing formation. Every wing tip of the snow geese in front "gives support" for those in back. The most front of snow geese has a function as a leader. If it feels tired, it will fly turning around to the most back part of the flock then its position is automatically replaced by the other behind it. When there's a snow goose is hurt, one or two geese accompany it to fly down. After the hurt goose has been able to continue the journey, they soon follow or join the next another flock.
This phenomena shows that if every member of the group realizes and truly does what becomes its role, there must be a beautiful harmony and happiness in it. It's also applied in family. Have you realized that every family member has his/her role which has been determined by God? If this role is done well, the beautiful and extraordinary things will happen in your family. No child is considered less important than the others. Neither husband nor wife gives his/her own responsibility to each other or even to someone else.
You may consider that you have done your role well but you still need to ask the Holy Spirit to remind, give wisdom and strength in order to give the best for your family. Just believe, if you keep opening your heart for the transformation, the Holy Spirit will work more in your life. The happiness and bless from God are more revealed in your family life. Praise the Lord! REFLECTION Saudara Terkasih, the key of HAPPINESS IN FAMILY is to realize that every family member HAS A ROLE TO BE DONE
APPLICATION 1. What have you done to fulfill your role in family? 2. Is there any responsibility which is difficult for you to do? 3. What is your commitment to be a person who truly lives your role in family?
TODAY'S PRAYER "Lord Jesus, thank You for the family You have given to me. Teach me to be thankful , understand and live my role for my family, whatever it is. I need the strength from You. In the name of Lord Jesus I pray. Amen."
