Today we will be dealing with 25 bible verses about gratitude for family. A family is a group of people who are related by blood, by marriage, and by adoption. But now the definition of family has been re-modified. It is no longer people with whom you are related by blood or marriage. Is now, family is a group of people with whom we share a great bond. That’s where the Christian family comes in. While we may not have the power to choose our family, the bond we share with them, however, is our greatest strength, that’s why we must always show gratitude to family.
The sacrifices that a family pay is not small that is why we must take a family with great importance. The first social institution orchestrated by God is the family. The family has a role to play in the modeling and remodeling of a child. Family is the first place a child learns cultures, doctrines, and values. For every Christian child today who learned about Christ through their family, you must show gratitude to that family that made you know the way.
There are so many people whose lives would have been better if only they had a family to guide them. There are so many people whose lives are nothing to write home about simply because they lacked the guidance and direction of a family. This explains why those of us who were opportune to have a family to guide and nurture us must be grateful. We must be grateful not only to our families but also to God who gave us such a blessed family. We have compiled a list of 25 bible verses about gratitude for family. Let’s take time to study it.
