Care for each other

My family members have already left with two (my mum and my sis). Yet things are still not as the green pasture that the Lord has promised. Argument is still unavoidable, things done were never pleasing to each other. We love each other alot, yet we cant tolerate each other little habits that seems very wrong in the one's sight. Not sure if this is really the issue of our mother or we are simply too tired of her. Now I really understand why my dad said must look after mum properly and not matter what do look after her. I think he really knows that my mum is really handicap without him. To many, my dad is really not a good husband and dad. But to me, he is really good. He loves me and provides me. Not only good to me, to my mum, dad had also took alot of responsibility in looking after the family but that is always not enough in our sights.

Firstly, I understand it is not easy to live as a couple together in an extended family. My dad's father and mother were an issue to their rocky relationship. I believe that they been through alot during those days eg 1)mum ran away from home due to grandfather, 2)un-reasonable uncle and auntie came accusing my mum and dad of things (I dont really remember) and that uncle even hit my dad for that.

Secondly, after going through the renovation works that my sis was preparing for the new house shifting. It was really not easy. The budget really needs to be planned well.Alot of minors stuffs need to be planned by phases. I start to wonder the things my dad had to go through, when he choose not to involved my mum. To my mum, my dad has never involved her which was not taking your wife seriously. But now, I also see at another angle too. He really plan ahead properly and everything we need were provided. He loves my mum that he don't want her to get too worry on that.

Thirdly, I also understand the need to start a family or the important to live on your own when you turns old. Because one day, we will have things we can't tolerate each other on and i believe living apart is really good and that is when you will start to appreciate your family members being around. 


Heavenly Father,

Pray that we will get closer because of what you taught. Stop us from taking out the weighing balance to put all our expectations on one side of the balance and expect that the other side will be completed by the person whom we put our expectations on, so that it will be balance. Let us truly understand that no one is perfect and we can never be perfect without you.

Pray also that the house reno will be in Lord's great and mighty hand and we will shift into the house that you have provided through the many prayers of our friends and ourselves. In Jesus Name I pray Amen.
