Today is Friday, March 11th, 2016; Karen's Korner #3265

Today is Nancy Reagan's funeral. It might be a good day to recall something that former President Ronald Reagan wrote one time and was published in "In God We Still Trust" by Dr. Richard G. Lee:


The Cornerstone of American Society

"The family has always been the cornerstone of American society. Our families nurture, preserve, and pass on to each succeeding generation the values we share and cherish, values that are the foundation for our freedoms. In the family, we learn our first lessons of God and man, love and discipline, rights and responsibilities, human dignity and human frailty.

"Our families give us daily examples of these lessons being put into practice. In raising and instructing our children, in providing personal and compassionate care for the elderly, in maintaining the spiritual strength of religious commitment among our people---in these and other ways, America's families make immeasurable contributions to America's well-being.

"Today more than ever, it is essential that these contributions not be taken for granted and that each of us remember that the strength of our families is vital to the strength of our nation."

FAMILY VALUES

".....husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well."

~ I Timothy 3:12
