Theme: "Family motivated to serve the Lord".
Text: Matthew 6:22-24
22. The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eye is single, your whole body will be full of light; 23. but if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness! 24. No one can serve two masters. For either he will hate the one and love the other; or he will hold to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
Let us remember:
Our family must not be in darkness to avoid sinking all together. If darkness overshadows an entire family, the loss is enormous and the irreparable would easily occur because it is a family catastrophe taking away the entire family. Let us pray and bring before the throne of God each member of our families so that God saves the entire group individually. God must be the eye of our family, it is He who must enlighten us since his light is not extinguished. The Lord must be the lamp of our family. He shines with an inextinguishable light whose clarity illuminates the darkness of our errors. If we make God the lamp of our family, his light will flush us out when we go astray. May God be a lamp at the feet of the members of our family. May He be a light on the paths of our families. When we succeed in erecting the Lord as the God of our family, he will take total control of it. The family will need neither the sun nor the moon to illuminate it; for the glory of God will light it, and the Lamb will be its lamp. The family will walk in its light (Revelation 21:23-24). If therefore the light that is in our family is darkness, let us know that this darkness will be great. It will extinguish our light, the family will sink into darkness. Let no one bring darkness into the family circle by worshiping Mamom the god of gain and greed. Let us strengthen ourselves individually so that the whole family is strong; let no one extinguish the lamp of his family. Excellent Sunday. Amen.
