Togetherness?
United we stand - divided we fall? That can and should pertain to more than a country. 50 - 75 - 100 years ago there was little said about divorce. Families stuck together - right or wrong - they stuck together. Blended families - was non existence or at the least not that well spoken about.
Sometimes I even wonder if it would be going out on a limb to say that the CONFLICT between countries stems back to the conflict between families? We all do it. Even tho it's not right. There is enstrangement between husband and wife - fierce rivalry between brother and sister.Etc....etc....etc.......
Familey # 1. splits. Mom ...one way and Dad another. The children split between the two. Each re-marys . now ( on mom's side) you have 1/2 mom's and 1/2 new dad's ? They divorce - and you have 1/4 her's 1/4 second dad's and 1/2 new dad's? Before we attempt to go any farther it sounds like 1 BIG MESS to me.
Genesis 25:27,28
The boys ( twins ) grew up. Esau became an expert hunter, an outdoorsman. Jacob was a quiet man prefering life indoors among the tents. Isaac loved Esau( better?) because he loved his game, but Rebekah loved Jacob( better ?)
Bottom line ...........................
There was conflict before ..........
there's conflict now..........
there will be conflict in the future.........
The key is how we choose to deal with it.
