There is a marraige back home that is in trouble. They are pretty young in their faith and seem to have lots to blame for their problems. For some reason, the Father has put this on my heart all week. As I've been prying, I've also been asking for wisdom for the fellowship they are a part of. We live in an area where we have to have a home fellowship with Westerners for many reasons. This fellowship consists of those we work with and see on a daily basis. We know all of each other's drama. Levi and I can't even have a tiff in private because we are with people so much. The Indian way is for the fellowship leader to get involved in family problems and pull in other leaders from the fellowship to refocus the family on what really matters. America has told this lie that we should all mind each other's business which leaves young marraiges as bait for the wolves. As they are attacked by the enemy, we sit back and say..."well, it just isn't my business" and let the enemy devour the marraige that the good book says is part of the plan of the King. It is a huge covenant.
May we not be the ones accused of doing nothing while those in our fellowship have their lives torn apart. May we fight for truth, for righteousness, for love. May we humbly and gently "butt in" to people's lives and give them advice from the word instead of all the advice the enemy is telling them through the media, ect.
This is awesome. Very good points here!
