A Peaceful Home LNO

1 Thessalonians 5:17 goes something like this, "pray without ceasing." Are we praying for our children? Are we praying up our husband? When is the last time we prayed & asked God to reveal ways in which we could establish a peaceful home? Thankfully, someone mentored me in this area & as a result, I was able to share my discoveries with the southside of Jacksonville on May 10th. Here is a peek at what we talked about & what you'll hear on the audio...

-Train to the heart. For example, rather than saying, "La-ia, stop slamming doors!" politely explain to them that slamming doors is disrespectful.

-Gather your children together & have them learn a Bible verse. To take it 1 step further, put a tune to the verse. One of our family faves is Proverbs 12:16, "A fool shows his annoyance at once (clap-clap clap-clap... clap-clap clap-clap), but a wise man overlooks an insult (clap-clap clap-clap) OVERLOOKS AN INSULT!"

To hear the audio, click on the link & download the file. The file will take about 10 minutes to download so why not use that time to pray yourself up for what your about to hear?
