Loving Savior

Since the beginning of time we all have and will experience trials and tribulations.  God's intention is not to punish you. God's goal is to remind you of his everlasting love.

Psalm 17:7

King James Version (KJV)
Shew thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand them which put their trust in thee from those that rise up against them.

Tyler Perry is a fantastic reminder how important family is in our lives . Dysfunctional or Functional as children they provide a powerful impact in our lives.

Tyler Perry
Perry was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, as Emmitt Perry, Jr., the son of Willie Maxine Perry (née Campbell) and Emmitt Perry, Sr., a carpenter.[11] He has three siblings. [12] Perry once said his father's "answer to everything was to beat it out of you".[13] As a child, Perry once went so far as to attempt suicide in an effort to escape his father's beatings. In contrast to his father, his mother took him to church each week, where he sensed a certain refuge and contentment.[13] At age 16, he had his first name legally changed from Emmitt to Tyler in an effort to distance himself from his father.[14]
Many years later, after seeing the film Precious, he was moved to relate for the first time[15] accounts of being molested by a friend's mother at age 10; he was also molested by three men prior to this, and later learned his own father had molested his friend.[16]

While Perry did not complete high school, he earned a GED.[17] In his early 20s, watching an episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show, he heard someone describe the sometimes therapeutic effect the act of writing can have, enabling the author to work out his or her own problems. This comment inspired him to apply himself to a career in writing. He soon started writing a series of letters to himself, which became the basis for the musical I Know I've Been Changed.[18]

You can tell Tyler Perry was blessed to have a praying mother that taught him about the love of God.  Unlike many people today that thinks their family owes them something for the pain they have experience, Tyler Perry learned how to turn a negative into a positive.  Most of Tyler Perry's work has a message base around family issues.
 When you perform a random act of kindness think about a family member. Be a Blessing give a
Blessing of encouragement.
