Our Sunday School class has been studying about the importance of "staying true to our commitments". One of our most important commitments is when we take our marriage vows. Married couples, in most cases, start off with a true devoted feeling of love for each other, and a commitment to love and adore until death. Most couples are then blessed with a loving family, and then more commitments begin. Our children are given to us as one of Gods most precious gifts. I always looked at childbirth as one of God's wonderful miracles. Parents, stay true to your commitment in supervision and guidance of that son or daughter. Let's not let that special closeness between mom and dad and son and daughter ever cease to exist. Too often, we adults fail to stay true to commitments we make. My wife and I attended a 60th. Wedding Anniversary last week of a Mr. and Mrs. Dean, given to them by their daughter. I want mention their first names, they might not invite us to their 70th., but this is what I'm trying to say. The love for each other and the love and appreciation their daughter showed, was very prevalent. Staying true to their commitments.
I read in my teachers adult commentary, that "Christians are not immune from facing challenges to their commitments. They may even be tempted to break commitments in serving God. God is pleased when people commit to serve Him. He is honored when they stay true to those commitments."
