Family......?

The word family has so many different meanings to different people. What does family mean to you? Do you have to be a relative to be part of the family? Do we deny family? Do we embrace family? What in the world does that word mean to you?

To me.....Family has so many meanings. Here's only a few of them.....

Friends

Ancestor

Marriage

Interesting

Loss

Yearn to be one, one goal, one love

I believe that family is a community of people. It can be kin people, Christians, friends, co-workers, etc. It hurts my heart when families argue over worldly possesions. This could be within kin family or church family. There is a bond that is strained when this tension comes between family, which is called satan. Family is very important to me and I don't want it to be divided! I have lost a close brother two years ago. He lived his life like every breath was his last. He is my inspiration! I cherish every moment that I spend with my husband, my son, my parents, my brother & his family, friends, brothers/sisters in Christ. Thank you Lord for giving me another moment!
