Acrostic Poem for Thought

 

 Family Perspective

Familiar in relation to each other
All about living in this perspective 
Making the best life with one another
In this being the ultimate objective

Loving each other as sister and brother

Your relation given from God as selective

 

Precious the moments to this rather

Even when disagreements hinder this directive

Remembering as children best times together
Special as given to make life smoother
Past the struggles as adults, this subjective

Elevating each other in life further

Celebrating life given in pain by mother

Totally forgiving when put in this respective 
In making life easier one to another
Valuable to God, family meant to be effective

Even today as adults, we are sister and brother

Thoughts: Seems today, the importance of family has diminished. As we mature as sisters and brothers we sometimes have major disagreements in the life styles our siblings choose or are thrown into; which can sometimes lead to judgement from one another. And, sometimes, this judgement can be very painful and hard to get past as it coming from a family member. But as we mature and grow older, we begin to realize how silly and damaging it can be to hold a grudge against each other. Although hard sometimes in forgiving one another, giving forgiveness in forgetting the past becomes necessary in order to reestablish the bond of being brothers and sisters that God established when He chose to give us to one another as family. Sometimes, we need to see past the ugly in remembering the things of good as children in rebuilding that loving family perspective.
