Use Grace!

Why wouldn't we want to treat our family; our children and grandchildren with grace? We need to be people who use words which build up our family and whose actions will always be remembered by our children and grandchildren when they are grown as actions which reminded them how much they are dearly loved.

I have found using grace in the tone, volume and words I speak with my grandchildren defuses any situation and brings healing. I do not ever want my words or actions to inflict pain on the people I love and know - or even any I do not know. I want to be remembered as someone who spoke and showed grace to all.

Proverbs 15:1 is absolutely true . . .

A kind answer soothes angry feelings, but harsh words stir them up.

Use kind answers with your family. Use grace with your family - it is not something you will ever regret - you, and they, will be so glad you did!
