Today’s Task: Affirm a family member.


“Brothers, if you have a message of encouragement for the people, please speak.” Acts 13:15

I once read a story about a teacher who left a permanent mark on her students’ hearts. She asked them to write down one thing about each classmate that they liked and give it to that person. We did this in our family and we went around the table reading our “affirmations” out loud. The results were amazing, both in what each member shared and how if effected the person being affirmed.



What an incredible effect this exercise had. Try it and send me a message on the family forum about your experiences.

Today's Task:  Play as a family

" Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp."Psalms 149:3

This weekend, my husband did something he rarely has time to do, he played!  It was so much fun.  We played volleyball with the kids, ran around the backyard and even watched a family movie together.  The kids thanked him for the wonderful weekend and we all felt ready to face the week.  We  visit our friends, play with our buddies, but how often do we make sure to play in our own family?  The family that plays together, stays together!
