Take Responsibility For Yourself!

1 Corinthians 13:11 NIV

When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, 
 I put childish ways behind me.

Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, now that you 
 have tasted that the Lord is good.

Take Responsibility For Your Wife!

Ephesians 5:25-27,31 NLT

For husbands, this means love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her to make her holy and clean, washed by the cleansing of God’s word. He did this to present her to himself as a glorious church without a spot or wrinkle or any other blemish. Instead, she will be holy and without fault…As the Scriptures say, 
 “A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.”

Take Responsibility For Your Family!

1 Timothy 5:8 NIV

If anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for his immediate family, he has denied the faith and 
 is worse than an unbeliever.

Ephesians 6:4 NIV

Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.
