Joy In The Family by rccgamg: 12:24pm On Dec 12, 2013
Joy is a long lasting happiness

In a Home joy is necessary to be present in a Family, Joy is not based on material achievement, but a gift from God.
Happiness is usually connected to material achievement like Career success, Present of financial abundance, birth of
a new child, etc....

John 2:1-8 "On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Jesus also was invited to the wedding with his disciples. When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.” And Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does this have to do with me? My hour has not yet come.” His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”
Now there were six stone water jars there for the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons. Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” And they filled them up to the brim. And he said to them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the feast.” So they took it."

The Presence of Jesus in our life's is the presence of Joy.
AT the party in John 2:1-8, It was the presence of Jesus that restored the exhausted Joy in the party. We need Joy
in our Home/Family, If Jesus lives in our Family, then Joy is bound to be in it.
The presence Pride is not the presence of Joy in the Family.

Parents should carry their Family along in the Christian Faith, this is because without the presence of Jesus
in our life's and children's life's there cant be Joy.

Lets stop taking our Husband's for granted, lets respect and Obey them.

We need to dress in a God fearing style of clothing to glorify God and also to look beautiful to our partners too.

Eph 5:22--->>>"Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord."

Wife's should submit themselves to their husbands, agree and plan your life's together
Husbands should also respects their wives and they should also strive to please their wives too

Eph 5:28 "In the same way, Husbands should love their wives"
Couples should act as one, not as completely separate humans.


Proverbs 4:1 "Hear, O sons, a father's instruction, and be attentive, that you may gain insight"

Children should humble themselves in the presence of God and also live a Godly life always
