Reading Time: 2 minutes

How are you preparing for this year? Have you started working on making better decisions? I hope you are. This morning, we will be touching on an important part of your life; your family. You will be learning how to make better family decisions.

Most times, family members are the most ignored set of people. We tend to think that they will always be there or they don’t need much from us.

Take a good look at your relationship with your family members. Do so by asking yourself these questions:

1. How often did you tell or show them you love them?

2. How many times did you help them when they needed it?

3. How often did you help your parents at home?

4. How often did you obey parental instructions?

5. How many times did you pray for your parents or siblings?

6. What was the last gift you gave your family members?

7. How often did you spend time with them?

8. How often did you fight your sibling?

These are personal questions that will guide you. You can and should add yours to these.

Showing love to your parents and siblings is important and gladdens the heart of God. As a Christian child, you are supposed to value the family system. Christianity itself is a family of believers in Christ.

May the Lord bless you. Amen.

Prayer:
Lord, I am grateful for the people you have blessed me with. I thank you for my parents and siblings. Help me to value them more in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Action point:
Start by saying a big thank you to your family members for being there for you throughout last year. You can make a big “thank you” card for them.

Declaration:
I value my family. This year, I am more committed to them than ever before.
