religion and family drama

May 27, 2005 23:13

Okay...so I don't come off as the most religious girl in the world. But, then again, accept it or not...religion is a big part of my life.
My family's been having some drama with my grandmother. My dad brought religion into it because she's supposed to be religious (yeah right) and...well...I sent out this email since I'm the only church-going person in this household. I typed all of it up a while back...and my dad forwarded it. I'm cleanin' out my email...but I wanna save this.. So...here it is...just a few verses...

Get along with each other, and forgive each other. If someone does wrong to you, forgive that person because the Lord forgave you.

-Colossians 3:13

When you talk, do not say harmful things but say what people need--words that will help others become stronger. Then what you say will do good to those who listen to you. And do not make the Holy spirit sad. The Spirit is God's proof that you belong to him. God gave you the spirit to show that God will make you free when the final day comes. Do not be bitter of angry or mad. Never shout angrily or say things to hurt others. Never do anything evil. Be kind and loving to each other, and forgive each other just as God forgave you in Christ.

-Ephesians 4: 29-32

Old people are proud of their grandchildren, and children are proud of their parents.

-Proverbs 17: 6

Do everything without complaning or arguing. Then you will be innocent and without any wrong. You will be God's children without any fault. But you are living with crooked and mean people all around you, and you shine like stars in the dark world.

-Phillipians 2: 14-15

Love each other like brothers and sisters. Give each other more honor than you want for yourselves.

-Romans 12: 10

Because God has given me a special gift, I have something to say to everyone among you. Do not think you are better than you are. You must decide what you really are by the amount of faith God has given you.

-Romans 12: 3

In righteousness you shall judge your neighbor.

-Levitcus 19: 15
