INTRO: Preaching on family life is not my forte, if I even have one. Such days as Father's Day or Mother's Day are a struggle and usually do not give a message on those days. Usually I pray for them and give some words of encouragement. But I thought I would see how it went and I sat down and began to work on it. My first thoughts were on the word, motherhood. Why did God choose to make mankind in such a way, as to require mothers in order to bring about human beings? Now you understand why God made human beings. The very first question in our Catechism is, "What is the chief end of man?" Our German Catechism says, "Was ist das Notwendigste, wonach ein Mensch in diesem Leben trachten sol?" I would put it like this: Why am I here? Why did God make man? What should be our chief goal in life? The answer in our catechism is: In Gotes Jemeichschaft und Gnade zu Leben und nachmals die ewige Seligkeit to erlangen. That means, „To live in God's fellowship and grace and to obtain eternal life in the future."
