Reparing broken families.

This morning i found myself thinking about how our culture and society as a whole has changed.
Even Family is nolonger the ‘Family’ we used to know back in the 90s or early 2000s.
These days people nolonger hesitate to cut ties with family and especially when some members are toxic, they don’t think twice.
I have seen big Families that were once united and happy now broken and divided.
One little mistake made by a member is now enough to destroy a family.
Mother against daughter,
Father against son,
Brother against sister
Sisters against each other…I can go on and on.
Nobody has the energy to work on broken relationships.
One simple argument, and the whole pack will scatter.
I don’t know, but maybe the ones that used to hold the family together are long gone….The ones that knew the true value of family.
And all we have left is a bunch on selfish individuals.
Each man for himself…No one wants to lift another up.
Man is now an island…We can do without each other and we will only meet on funerals, if that’s even possible.
So much jealousy, and hatred amongst each other.
I know there is no such thing as perfect family but let things take a bad turn knowing that we at least tried to do something about it.
We at least tried to sit each other down to reach a consensus,
We at least did something, we at least prayed.
These days society has so many options I guess.
We are too quick to pick our own family from total strangers because we are too lazy to work on the not so perfect ones God gave us.
I know you might read this and say, ‘I am crazy and don’t understand how some families are hard to deal with’.
But it’s okay, I don’t know much but I know this, “You can’t give up on your family, nomatter how tempting they may make it.”
