We dont always agree on everything, We dont always see each other or talk to each other everyday, But at the end of the day we are FAMILY and a Family that prays together stays together.
I have one crazy big family. We're all so different but, we all love each other and would do anything for one another. I have family in houston, shreveport, Louisiana, dallas and etc. I dont see everyone everyday or talk to everyone everyday but, my love for my family is deep. Its one of the closet things to love besides the love of God.
As in all families we all have our differences but, when we come together its a PARTY and one of the happiest moments of my life. I love to see the old generation come together with the new generation. Its so amazing and powerful to hear the stories of the past and see how it reflects our today. Its sad when families cant get along with one another when its your own flesh and blood or brothers and sisters cant get along with each other for whatever reason. Its like how can you be so stupid to argue, hate or not even speak to your own flesh and blood. Now im not gonna act like my family is perfect cause we're NOT we have our issues like everyone else but, in a time of need no matter whats going on we are there for one another.
It also sad to see or hear that a family member is hating on another family member ! why in the world would you hate on another family member for THEIR accomplishment ? if you wanted that for yourself you should have went after it and achieved it but, obiviously you didnt want it so you didnt go after it so you didnt accomplish it. Just because someone else has something doesnt mean its for you. What GOD has for YOU its for YOU and no man or thing can take that away from you.
When someone in my family or a friend gets blessed im so happy for them. Wanna know why ? because that simple means im next in line for my blessing. lol. and i know that whatever God has instore for me its something thats for me & my good. I tell them congrats and im happy for you and in my mind im thinking you got yours now step aside and let me get mine. Dont hate or be mad at your family cause if you were getting married, or you got your degree, or you were expecting your first child or whatever the case is you would want EVERYONE to be happy for you and your blessing.
I encourage you that if you have any unsettled disputes with a family member to settle it today. You never know when its your time or when its that person time to leave this place. Dont have hatered, jealousy, envy or anything in your heart because that is not of God and it does not please God. I encourage you that next time a family member or anyone in general comes to you and tell you good news BE HAPPY FOR THEM and i promise they will feel the love from your heart to theirs and you will feel good. Love your family ! yea they maybe crazy but, hey you related to them so that makes you crazy too lol. Nobody ask to be family members with anyone cause if they did you gotta ask yourself would they be my family member if they had a choice ? and if not then you might wanna fix things. You never wanna leave things broken. What if they left today and yall had issues and you didnt fix it you have to live with that for the rest of your life and there are more important things in life than to have that burden. Now after you tried to fix, pray about it and give it over to God. [ 1 peter 5:7 says Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you. )
To my family and friends reading this know that i love you all and care for you deeply. Thank you for putting up with me throughout my years of being on this earth. Thank you for being there in my time of need. I know its not easy dealing with me at times but, know that i listen and i thank God everyday for you. Love you !
I can't agree more that family is very important. It's easy to get busy and forget to check on your extended family, but it's one of those things where you have to remember that you can't replace them. I always think back to family get togethers and family reunions and a smile comes to my face thinking about all the memories and craziness. Support from your family is also important because it's good to know that you can lean on your family and they will have your back no matter how mad at you they may be.
ReplyDeleteMy family is my everything. I love when we are together for holidays and vacations. Just being bless to talk to them weekly if not daily really makes life worth living. KRB
