How sad that so many see true love as enslavement. We are afraid those we might choose to love will somehow enslave us to their needs. Love does bring us to serve the needs of others, but it releases us from the burden of self-absorption. Our Priorities to our children When husbands and wives love each other as Christ loved the church they are qualified to be parents. When husband and wife exemplify the love of Christ for each other the home becomes a stable environment for the children.
Children Learn What The Parents exemplify.
If a child lives with conflict, He learns to fight. If a child lives with fear, He learns to be apprehensive. If a child lives with pity, He learns to feel sorry for himself. If a child lives with ridicule, He learns to be shy. If a child lives with shame, He learns to feel guilty.
