As a parent, spouse, and individual, I\u2019ve often felt the push and pull of various responsibilities, all demanding my attention. Yet, I\u2019ve found that leaning on my faith and keeping family at the center brings a sense of harmony and purpose to our daily lives.<\/p><p>One of the biggest challenges is finding time for everything. Work, school, extracurricular activities, and household chores can easily fill up the day, leaving little room for quality family moments. That\u2019s where intentionality comes in. We\u2019ve made it a habit to prioritize family dinners, where we not only share a meal but also our thoughts, worries, and joys. This simple act strengthens our bond and keeps us connected. <em><i>Proverbs 22:6<\/i><\/em>\u00a0says, <em><i>\u201cTrain up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.\u201d<\/i><\/em>\u00a0By creating these routines, we are instilling values and traditions that our children will carry with them.<\/p><p>Our faith plays a crucial role in maintaining the balance of our family. Regular church attendance and involvement in the True Jesus Church provide a supportive environment that reinforces our values. Sabbath mornings aren\u2019t just about going to church; we are about setting aside time to reflect, recharge, and reconnect with God and each other. It\u2019s a weekly reset that helps us face the coming days with renewed strength and perspective. <em><i>Hebrews 10:25 <\/i><\/em>reminds us,<em><i>\u00a0\u201cNot forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.\u201d<\/i><\/em>\u00a0With guidance of Holy Spirit and being part of the True Jesus Church reminds us that we are not alone in our journey.<\/p><p>Prayer is another cornerstone for our family balance. Whether it\u2019s a quick prayer before meals, a bedtime prayer with the kids, or a moment of silent reflection during chaos and challenges, prayer keeps us grounded. It\u2019s a way to invite God into our daily lives and seek His will. <em><i>Philippians 4:6 <\/i><\/em>encourages us,<em><i>\u00a0\u201cBe anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.\u201d<\/i><\/em>\u00a0In those moments of prayer, we find peace and direction.<\/p><p>Balancing family life and faith is not always easy, but it\u2019s undoubtedly rewarding. By prioritizing family time, being active in our church community, and maintaining a strong prayer life, we create a foundation that helps us navigate life\u2019s ups and downs with grace and resilience. It\u2019s about being present, staying connected, and trusting that with God at the center, everything else will fall into place.<\/p><p>We warmly invite you to come to the Chicago True Jesus Church\u2019s Fall Evangelical Service and Spiritual Convocation in September.\u00a0<\/p><p>September 26-29, 2024<\/p><p>Thursday, September 26,2024 6:50PM to 8:10PM<br \/>Friday and Saturday, 27-28 September,\u00a02024 9:00AM to 8:10PM<br \/>Sunday, September 29, 2024 9:00AM to 1:00PM<br \/>Complimentary lunch and dinner will be served.<\/p><p>Our church\u2019s address is as follows:<\/p><p><b>True Jesus Church<\/b><br \/><b>4N550 Church Road<br \/><\/b><b>Bensenville,\u00a0<abbr title=\"Illinois\">IL<\/abbr>\u00a060106<br \/><\/b><i aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/True+Jesus+Church+Chicago\/@41.945266,-87.9536702,18.39z\/data=!4m14!1m7!3m6!1s0x880fb39f5fbd433d:0x72d82c41e185bf3e!2s4+S+Church+Rd,+Bensenville,+IL+60106!3b1!8m2!3d41.9448745!4d-87.9534209!3m5!1s0x880fb3a1e4e2dd49:0xd44299b704de1192!8m2!3d41.9453743!4d-87.9533863!16s%2Fg%2F1tdn02z1?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><b>\u00a0Google Maps<\/b><\/a><\/p><p>In the meantime, please feel free to join us for our regular Sabbath (Friday evening and Saturday)\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/tjc-chicago.org\/service\/live-sabbath-service\/\">services online<\/a>\u00a0or in-person.<\/p><p>Friday Evening Service:\u00a0 7:50PM \u2013 9:00PM<\/p><p>Saturday Morning Service:\u00a0 10:50AM \u2013 12:00Noon<\/p><p>Saturday Afternoon Service:\u00a0 1:30PM \u2013 2:40PM<\/p><p>Email us at\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:ilovejesus@tjc-chicago.org\">ilovejesus@tjc-chicago.org<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Finding Balance between Family Life and Faith Balancing family life while nurturing our faith can be quite the juggling act.
