A Christian's whole life is centered on doing the will of God.(Psalm 143:10) This is what Godly devotion really means.
Doing God's will helps families to keep their eyes on the truly important things.(Philippians 1:9,10) for example, Jesus warned, "I came to cause division, with a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a young wife against her mother-in-law, Indeed, a man's enemies will be persons of his own house hold,"(Matthew 10:35,36) True to Jesus "warning,many of his followers have been persecuted by family members.
If one endures despite family opposition, the opposers may change when they see the good effects of Godly devotion.(1Corinthians7:12:16)1 Peter 3:1,2) Even if that does not happen, no lasting good is gained by ceasing to serve God because of opposition
