The ongoing strife comes from all of the things that Fajita listed. Waiting for peace takes a lot of prayer and continually asking God to show me areas where I need to change. I keep a reminder list of the Fruits of the Spirit on my bathroom mirror, which also helps a lot. I have read all of Ron's excellent books and applied his principles to our home and my marriage. My pastor husband and I have made it through 3 years with his four uncooperative boys and their mother (who is usually the catalyst for the strife) and we have committed to each other that we are NEVER going to give up. However, there are times when I feel that peace isn't going to occur in our blended family until the youngest of my four stepsons turns 18 in five years and moves out on his own or goes to college.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30713143.post-19163552150690954712009-05-26T20:47:26.666-07:002009-05-26T20:47:26.666-07:00We are waiting for a custody evaluation to get fin...We are waiting for a custody evaluation to get finished.oneluvoneworldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13353212271259894131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30713143.post-44523423486864433702008-08-29T18:19:00.000-07:002008-08-29T18:19:00.000-07:00There is wisdom in waiting.
