Wednesday, October 30 He that is showing insight in a matter will find good.—Prov. 16:20. We need to make an earnest effort to cultivate a peaceful relationship with unbelieving family members. This may present a challenge because what they want us to do may at times conflict with Bible principles. Our holding firmly to right principles may upset some unbelieving family members, but such a stand promotes peace in the long run. Of course, being unyielding when something does not violate Scriptural principles may cause unnecessary friction. (Prov. 16:7) When facing a challenge, it is important to seek Scriptural counsel. (Prov. 11:14) Cultivating peace in a household calls for trust in Jehovah and insight into the feelings of unbelieving family members. It is good to remember that unbelieving spouses may feel abandoned or threatened when their mate leaves to participate in Christian activities, but loving reassurances can go a long way in allaying such feelings. w12 2/15 4:5-7
