Learn Now To Be the Teachers Later

Here's the deal... the family is under attack. It has been and will always be, I believe. From class discussion, this week, we read and learned about the disintegration of the family as a whole. This processes is occurring in many different ways.  It is being attacked through having premarital sex, a decrease in birth rate, decrease in fertility rate, choosing to marrying later in life, mothers going back to work during crucial stages of a childs life, cohbitating, ect. The statistics are unreal! It blows my mind. There are a number of causes as to why the family is literally disolving at this time of our lives; right infront of us; at our finger tips. Can you see it? It's everywhere. Television, Movies, Music, Magazines. I have learned how much I need to safe guard my family. But, more importantly, prepare myself now for them later. It is up to me and my husband to keep our family solid and strong. Something neat, as I learn about protecting the family, my family, I can also teach others! We can all teach other families of the importance of the family. I believe it is our obligation to do so. I have realized that as I desire to gain more knowledge about the family, and how to protect them through learning about being a better parent, that the Lord blesses. We are blessed for righteous choices. And wanting to learn how to defend the family is a great choice! and He will bless us for that! Yes, we are learners now, BUT soon we will be the teachers. And I want to have a great knowledge of the family to teach others. I learned a lot this week. Most were from insights I had from other peoples comments and pondering afterwards. I am excited to learn more!
