\u00a0TODAY’S DEVOTIONAL PASSAGE<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
\n

Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away.<\/span><\/p>\n

DEVOTIONAL<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

by Elder Chris Beltran<\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Dr. Josh Mcdowell shared the 7 A’s of developing a deeper relationship with your family. Let me share the first two.<\/span><\/p>\n

First is <\/span>affirmation<\/span><\/i>. Every single day, we need to affirm our love for each other and bless each other with encouraging and affirming words. If there is a need to correct, always do it in an atmosphere of affirmation. The child must know why he or she is being reprimanded or corrected while also trusting you have his best interest in mind because you love him.<\/span><\/p>\n

The second is <\/span>acceptance<\/span><\/i> which gives a sense of security. As parents, sometimes, we only show our acceptance of our children only when they meet our expectations and get a hundred, as if being second is never good enough. There’s nothing wrong with wanting excellence, which should be encouraged, but demanding it without accepting failures or limitations will prove disastrous. Whether one wins or loses, meets our expectations or not, achieves the goal that was set or not, our children have the assurance of our acceptance that our love does not depend on their success.<\/span><\/p>\n

Remember, rules without relationships lead to rebellion. Truth without relationship leads to rejection. Discipline without a relationship leads to anger. Let’s all strive, build, and develop deeper relationships.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

PRAYER<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Heavenly Father, we pray for the wisdom to love our families. Help us affirm our love with encouraging words and offer acceptance that is not just tied to achievements. May our relationships be built on love, trust, and understanding, reflecting Your enduring love for us. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.<\/span><\/p>\n
