Hello all,
My family has experienced this division as indicated in scriture. My wife and her mother now have absolutely nothing left. God completely and totally divided them. It has been one of the hardest things in her life to accept.
To see this process take place from beginning to end, is amazing. The steady, progressive, and deliberate steps that God took to accomplish his purpose within these two peoples lives is almost indescribable.
Here is how I see them:
My wifes mother is an extremely carnal christian. She doesn't know the truth, and doesn't want to. She is getting worse every day.
My wife is awakening to the truth, she is changing and getting better every day. It is truly a miracle.
I don't understand why it had to be this way, but I know that since it happened, my wife has changed for the better, and has in doing so, exposed her mother for what she really is. Perhaps this is the key for her mother to begin HER change. We hope so. I am not questioning it, I only regret the pain and suffering that has come out of all of this.
I do know this...anytime the flesh is torn, there is pain, and out of this pain comes growth and the fullfillment of Gods true purposes.
Love,
Chuck
