earmarks of the final gospel message. Parents are to bring up their children to love and
obey the Lord. By their example and their words they are to teach them that Christ is a
loving, tender, and caring guide who wants them to become members of His body, the
family of God which embraces both single and married persons. (Excerpt)

HEALTH MINISTRIES DEPT.: Church family, as we prepare for the second coming of our
Lord, ponder these words from the book Christian Service by Ellen G. White. Call to Arise:
Idleness and Religion do not go hand in hand and the cause of our Great deficiency in the
Christian life and experience is inactivity in the work of God. The muscles of our body will
remain weak and useless if they are not kept in exercise, and it is so with the spiritual nature.
If they would be strong we must exercise our powers.

I woke up one morning thinking about wolves and realized that wolf packs function as
families. Everyone has a role, and if you act within the parameters of your role, the whole pack
succeeds, and when that falls apart, so does the pack. Jodi Picoult

THE IMPORTANCE OF FAMILY, Pamela O. Rucker

Time passes so quickly there's no time to waste
Spend time with your family, don't hesitate
For you never know if tomorrow will come
Show your love to all, and not just to some
You never know the impact that you will make
Make sure your actions are real and not fake
If tomorrow comes and your loved ones are gone
Your life is in despair and you're left all alone
Yesterday is gone and you can't get it back
Your heart is left cold, and your feelings now you lack
It's regrets you'll feel with a broken heart
You say 'God if I could have just one more start'
But time that is lost can never again be found
There's only quietness, no more laughter or sound
So use wisely the time in which you've been given
Don't be wasteful and make sure that you are living
Your family is a precious gift from the Lord
Always show them love and don't strike them with a sword
No human is perfect for we all make mistakes
We must learn forgiveness before it's to late
If love we freely give then love we'll freely get
And when it's heaven time, we'll be ready you can bet!
