Dear Family,
My parents are here for a visit and my mother has always been very critical towards me and likes to judge. She has always compared me to my siblings, especially my brother, saying that I have been very stubborn and not want to listen but I am a grown woman that makes decisions for myself. She wants to live through me and I don’t want the same things she wanted in life and she never lets up until I become furious and don’t speak to her for a few weeks.
They are here on vacation for two weeks and I can’t be with her for too long before she starts in and my temper explodes. I try to talk with her but she thinks I am always wrong in all things so the less I speak the better it is for me to deal with her. I hate being this way but have no choice…I want that close bond we use to have years ago.
Love my parents so very much so please pray for me.

Gosh. Isn’t amazing how many families deal with these things. I know for me when we all get together it almost becomes like a circus. I think it’s Gods way of continuing to mold us in His image by putting things like certain family members in our paths. One thing I like to think is that God certainly has a sense of humor with putting family trees together. Hang in there during your vacation and remember your not alone. Praying that this vacation breaks down the barriers between you and mom and Gods loving power shines.
