The family is the basic unit of civilization. A truly happy family is the product of a living faith in God's Word. "Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established" (Proverbs 24:3). God runs the home with the father's help as undershepherd and the mother's help as his assistant. As love and transparency deepen, an appreciation for the unique gifts and roles of each partner grows. The marriage excels! The family unit is of immeasurable value for one's happiness and life fulfillment. Those who are wise and alert do not neglect what really counts. The family is our acre of diamonds!
"For I know him [Abraham], that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment" (Genesis 18:19).
"She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her" (Proverbs 31:27-28).
