I read it in the Bible but it seems as though things are coming to pass. The prophecy must be fulfilled. I am a single Afro-American educated woman with no kids and no husband. I come from a strong matriarch that demands respect to the most highest. I am proud tol say I am not bitter when it comes to love and relationships whether romantic or with family. I say this to you, my family is being torn apart by selfishness, self esteem, insecurity. I can't help them and its heartbreaking. I am always there when needed. I've witness infidelity, physical abuse, and verbal.
My mom and older sister are considering divorce with their husbands. My other sister is separated from her husband because he beats her and cheats on her. My brother married a woman that aborted 2 of his babies. I learned love and sacrifice from him. My youngest sister is still bitter from the relationship she had with her son's father. I say this because I am the calm in the storm and I can't reach them. Everyone wants to talk and no one wants to listen but me. How is that we believe God is all-knowing and all powerful but we don't believe His word. I sit here tonight heartbroken because my family is drowning and I can't save them. The old against the young, and vice-versa. I'm too involved to leave them, but my heart is telling me be there even if they fall by the wayside. I want all of you women and men out there to understand this....your children are precious gifts from God because He decided you were worthy enough to have them. Your battle is already won, your children are not your hindrance, they are your gifts and you should cherish them as such. Times get hard but that is a part of life that you must deal with. Pray for my family so that they may find strength within themselves to not give up on Him. Thank you...Jah Bless
