Disciple of Prayer
I remarried several years ago and his family has not accepted my kids/ grandkids or I. They are distant but polite to my face although they bash me when I am not around. I love my husband and together we've found joy as a couple. I can't imagine life without him! We truly work hard together and contribute very much to our partnership. I pray that God show us the way to work through this part of our life. I am not asking for a miracle - I don't need the combined families to become best friends; but for our blended family to find a mutual respect for each other... that would be such a blessing! My heart aches and so does my husband. I was a widow and his ex abandoned him after 32 years. To find love and companionship again is such a blessing and I am so grateful to God for this gift. Please pray that God open hearts and minds and doors so that our blended families can become comfortable around each other and that his family can find respect for us, too. It's been very disheartening to give and love and be treated with indifference and disrespect in return. I know that God hears our prayers and he knows my tears... I know that God is in control. Please pray that God show us the way to build bridges.
