It's Complicated?

[Stephen F. Smith]

In the social networking world where it seems that everyone has a social networking profile somewhere, there is a line that is often used to describe one's relationships, or one's availability. All over the social networking world regardless of what site one is on, you will see the moniker "It's Complicated"! There are scores of these all over the Web! Our relationships seem to be under attack. This isn't just a case of lovesick lovers, but there are many families that have squabbles over the silly and the ridiculous and haven't spoke to each other in years.

Why are we having such a problem with our relationships in this day? The problem is not just with the one that you are dating or married to, but many of us have challenges clicking with our fellow siblings. Is this pressure cooker called life so hot and so intense that it would even make loving our own complicated? I want to hear from you on this one!

Relentless in My Pursuit of God,
Pastor Stephen F. Smith

Pastor you hit on it again!! This life (for most) is truly a pressure cooker ,,Complicated seemes to be the norm these days,,I know someonethat has the signature on their phone
The problem is when the enemy creeps in . Satan is always around "seeking whom I may devour" and he is getting his job done.. He starts with families especially Males, because the Men are the Head or covering for the families.So when satan has moved in and splits a family it is easier to eat away at the individuals that are left. They don' t have a "head" any more and probably aren't thinking clearly. The thoughts are on surviving with out the other person. This is a way satan has for us to take our eyes of of Jesus Christ and focus on our own problems. When the strong man(or woman) is left in a place where two should be the devil will come against that person. This is why we have to be anchored in Christ, and we must know where our help comes from ..It comes from the HILLS ,not from man. I am speaking from experience being a divorced woman with five children..I know the battle i went through financially, emotionaly, and spirtually! I saw how Satan came against me when i was on my own and i still see how he gets through the children being split as one is with her father and one on her own and one who is 23,still can' t hold anything together and always in trouble I have to be the strong one to continue to see the opposite of what i see with my natural eyes and see in the spirit what God said about the fruit of my womb.
If one did'nt have time to listen or hear my situation ,or anyone's they would just say it's complicated.. but if someone took time to listen and understand in the spirit what is actually going on it's simple .. we just need Jesus put back into the equation.Only He can right any wrong that was ever done..Hence The devil meant it for harm, but God can turn it around for good !!
