God's Goals For Your Roles: Devotions From Time Of Grace MinistrySample

INTRODUCTION TO SECTION FIVE: BROTHERS AND SISTERS American families sure are getting smaller. My great-grandfather had 11 siblings. My grandfather was 1 of 7, I was 1 of 5, and we have "only" 4. The American average is around 2. All the more reason to prize the experience of growing up with brothers and sisters, if God has given you that gift. Sibling life teaches you how to share, how to take turns, and how to be humble. Your brothers and sisters will help you realize that you're not such hot stuff. But later in life they can become a permanent web of love and support that is absolutely irreplaceable. Instead of taking your brothers and sisters for granted, let God's goals inspire your sibling roles.
