Love Bank Accounts

Family is the substance of community, church, businesses, recreation, and government. Family is the string that links history and tells the story of our human existence and condition. Without family none of us would be here. Have you ever stopped and wonderered how rich one can be in legacy, history, character, and potential all because of who your family is? Or do you identify or contribute your deficiencies to the brokenness of your family life? Family whether you consider your legacy rich or poor is yours forever; why not begin today depositing acts of kindness and words of love into yourself and other family members. Start a new legacy by letting love be stronger than hate and forgivenes stronger than bitterness. Cemeteries are full of family members who did not say what they needed to say or hug those they needed to hug. Our lives are like bank accounts-what is deposited is what will be withdrawn. The problem is that our bank accounts have been deposited with unkind words and actions that can leave people bleeding rather than blossoming. What an amazing thing it would be if each parent, grandparent, sibling, aunts, uncles, coaches, teachers, and anyone with the priveledge of influencing another life would agree to make love deposits into another life. What if we as a local community made a conscience effort to speak only words of life, love, healing, encouragement to our kids, family members, grocery store clerks, students, gas station attendants, the elderly, the homeless, and the veteran. Wow! What an opportunity to transform our community one word at a time, one family member at a time. Build bank accounts full of love and watch our community be transformed.
