Family-Nurturing Communication: What is It?
Recently, an article in a home design magazine caught my attention. The daughter of a famous designer was describing her bedroom; the accompanying photos were equally inviting. Using glowing terms of peaceful conversation, nurturing-comfort, I found myself wanting to cuddle up and stay awhile.
In a Nutshell that's Family-Nurturing Communication, It's So Comforting that Family Members Want to Cuddle-up, Snuggle and Stay While. Perhaps this is what the Lord had in mind for the family.
"Thy Kingdom Come on Earth as it is in Heaven.
“Husbands, show the same kind of love to your wives as Christ showed to the Church when He died for her to make her holy and clean, washed by baptism and God's word; so that He could give her to Himself as a glorious church without a single spot or wrinkle or any other blemish being holy and without a single fault." Continuing the BluePrint for nurturing communication:
"That is how husbands should treat their wives, loving them as part of themselves. Love your wives as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her”; "husbands ought also to love their own wives as their own bodies..”
When your husband loves and cares for you with that example, that passion, it becomes easy and natural to follow the instruction for us wives:
“You wives must submit to your husband’s leadership in the same way you submit to the Lord. For a husband is in charge of his wife in the same way Christ is in charge of His body, the church.(He gave His very life to take care of it and be its Savior." King James and Living Bible Translations Ephesians 5:
We, my husband and I, were encouraged to continue with the wisdom written centuries ago:
"Children obey your parents; this is the right thing to do because God has placed them in authority over you.Honor your Father and Mother..this is the first of God's Ten Commandments that ends with a promise"
The Lord's plan for the family communication is one of nurturing-discipline; He longs to guide us into common-unity with His Word.
Continuing in Him,
