When you think of having a firm foundation, what do you think of? Do you think of your faith? Your family? Your health? Your home?
Here at Family Strong, we think of them all! And each of them take patience, grace, and hard work.
Faith: Putting your faith first, your relationship with God first. Accepting that you have a God who sent his perfect son to die on a cross for you, to forgive your sins. The ultimate gift of love. Sharing that same love of Jesus with others, and living a life obedient to His word. Glorifying Him in all that you do.
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16

If you struggle to find the patience to get through the day-- balancing marriage, kids, work, and (Lord help me) self care-- just remember, it is both wonderful and chaotic. We have a beautiful responsibility to set an example as a momma, as a daddy, as a husband, as a wife, to exude self control in the midst of being...

Ephesians 5:33 "Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are the children born in one's youth. Blessed is the man who's quiver is full of them! They will not be put to shame when they contend with their opponents in court." Psalm 127:3-5 |
