Similar to the wisdom of Proverbs, every Monday I will share a practical wisdom quote. I pray this quote will make a difference in your personal life and relationships.
In a gratifying marriage, love is really not determined by feelings but by what two spouses DO and SAY to value one another on a daily basis. Randy Schroeder
One way for a parent to build a positive relationship with their child is through love statements. Words are powerful in creating self-confidence and self-worth in a child. Shown below are 6 ways to communicate love on a daily basis.
1. I love you NO MATTER WHAT!
2. I will love you even more tomorrow than I did today!
3. I am proud of you!
4. I am glad you are my child!
5. Why do I love you? I love you just because you are you!
Today and Every Day: Express unconditional love for your child with an affirming statement.

“Marriage is three parts love and seven parts forgiveness of sins.” Langdon Mitchell
I think it is so very important for every one of us to live life with a purpose. Proverbs 29:18 states, “Where there is no vision, the people perish . . . .”
The apostle Paul said, “For to me to live is Christ and to die is gain.” Regarding his purpose Billy Graham said, “I was faithful to what God wanted me to do, I maintained integrity in every area of my life, and I lived what I preached.”
What is your purpose for living today? The four questions below may help you find your purpose.
1. What will your “footprints” be on this earth?
2. How would you like to be remembered by family members, friends, and associates?
3. How would you spend your precious time if you only had two years to live?
4. What would you like to see etched on your tombstone?
Today: Write out your purpose in life by completing this sentence, “My purpose in life is . . . .”
