"Do not forsake your friend or a friend of your family, and do not go to your relative’s house when disaster strikes you— better a neighbor nearby than a relative far away." Proverbs 27:10
Family is the pillar upon which we build our spiritual and emotional lives. In times of tribulation, it is essential not to close our hearts to the love of the Lord. The Holy Spirit can manifest Himself at any moment, giving us comfort and guidance when we need it most.
Without the support of our loved ones, we may feel profoundly helpless. However, it is our responsibility to reach out to our family, to forgive and to reestablish the connection and communion of light and love. God's extended family is always present, waiting for us to open our hearts and reach out to them.
"I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought." 1 Corinthians 1:10
Spiritual and family flourishing fills us with joy and enthusiasm, giving us renewed energy. Just as nature renews itself with the blossoming of flowers and buds on the trees, the love of Christ also renews our lives. This is the perfect time to reach out to friends, family and loved ones with whom we have lost touch.
If you need to build a bridge of healing and forgiveness, do it now. Your inner peace will depend on this decision and the moment of openness you make with these beings of light.
Reconnecting with family is like a spiritual resurgence that fills us with fulfillment. The Lord fervently desires that we heal these bonds and reformulate our relationship with our loved ones. Family relationships go through different stages; moments of calm and stillness that later transform into strengthening and closeness.
We cannot walk away from the relationships that have shaped us for so long. Fathers, mothers, grandfathers, grandmothers, grandfathers, uncles and aunts are people that God has put in our path to learn from their experiences and teachings. We should be grateful for them and for the shared moments that help us understand who we are.
"Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen." 1 John 4:20
Pursuing family happiness involves focusing on the pillars of Faith. Family happiness is not synonymous with constant joy. Understanding that we are surrounded by individuals with different capacities to understand and love others is crucial.
The challenge presented to us by the Lord is to accept, understand and love, balancing our wills to build a common space. Dialogue is essential to overcome conflicts and potential problems in our relationships.
Forgiveness and compassionate regard for others is fundamental to moving forward. As Jesus and our Heavenly Father demonstrated, we have the unique opportunity to cultivate Faith in our primary nucleus: the family. Forgiveness and compassion are cornerstones for maintaining harmony and peace in our family relationships.
"How good and pleasant it is When God’s people live together in unity!" Psalm 133:1
To move forward on our spiritual journey, it is crucial to trust in God and Jesus. They provide us with the guidance and strength needed to overcome challenges and remain calm in the midst of the storm. Trusting in God means surrendering our worries and fears to Him, knowing that His love and wisdom are with us always.
Jesus, our Savior, showed us how to live with peace and love. By following His example, we can transform our lives and find the spiritual fulfillment we long for. May our daily actions reflect God's love, and may our faith guide us in every step we take.
As we face anger and rage, let us remember that God is always with us, offering us His peace and love. With faith and trust, we can overcome any obstacle and live a full and harmonious life. May the Lord's grace be with us always, illuminating our path to healing and spiritual peace.
