Michelle and I attempt to be intentional in making family memories. Sometimes these are small things -- playing a board game every once and a while. Other times we do something big for the sake of our family -- a vacation to the beach.
The last week we were blessed to be able to go on a trip with all four of us to Cancun. We had an awesome time! It was the first time we all flew anywhere. The whole trip was great to watch the girls have so much fun. From the flights, airports, a different culture, swimming in pools and on beaches, eating new foods, all staying together in the same room, and everything else -- it was a great family time.
Life can be so busy, but I cannot allow that to interfere with my responsibility to minister in the context of my family. Vacations like this are not just a way to have fun. It is a way to foster relationships, encourage one another, and set an example in the faith. That is family ministry.
