The Bible lays much stress upon the practice of hospitality. Not only does it enjoin hospitality as a duty, but it presents many beautiful pictures of the exercise of this grace and the blessings that it brings.
Foremost among these is the experience of Abraham (Genesis 18)........Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some entertained angels unawares.
The privilege granted to Abraham and Lot is not denied to us. By showing hospitality to God's children, we, too, may receive God's angels into our dwellings. Ellen G. White, The Adventist Home, pp 445 .

If we had our children practice kindness, courtesy, and love, we ourselves must set them an example.
Courtesy, even in little things, should be manifested by the parents towards each other......No rude language should be indulged; no bitter words should be spoken.
Your courtesy and self-control will have greater influence upon the characters of your children than mere words could have. EGW, The Adventist Home, pp 421.

From the worldly point of view,money is power,but from the Christian standpoint, love is power.
Tender affection should be cherished between husband and wife, parents and children,brother and sisters
Every hasty word checked,and there should not be even the appearance of the lack of love for one another.
