The Blender Syndrome: (A syndrome is a group of signs and symptoms that occur together and charactarizes a particular abnormality.)
Today the Blended family is no longer an abnormality. It has become the norm in America with Divorce as common as the cold. Satan has become an expert on his attacking our families. We are no longer surprised when our most respected Christian families announce that they are divorcing. If we are not compatable it must be God's Will to move on because we need to be happy, fulfilled and the justifications sould valid. Many Pastors, Ministers, and even Priests are telling spouses that they are justified because after all you have tried or he has treated you unfairly and you have grounds. Our Parents and friends take sides. A friend told me recently that "the whole Church is behind me because I've tried so many times". When is enough - enough in a marriage? And where do you get real help from real people who have been through Satans attacks and came through Blessed? Blessed? Does God really Bless families today? Are Blessings possible in a marriage that began in sin and does God Bless families that went through Divorce? We've all read the books from the authors who live in the Dream World of a Perfect family living in Blessed surroundings with Perfect Peace and Harmony. What about the Blended families. The families with his kids, her kids and their kids. Does it really work? Divorce rate is astounding but the second time around divorce rate is much higher. I recently read that two out of three marriages end in divorce if the marriage came with children. It becomes easier to justify divorcing a second time. After all who could live with Her children. "It must have been God's wrath on me." But who writes the books on help for blended families - The experts of course - The Pastors, Psychiatrist and Christian counselors who live in Perfect first families because he knows how to beat satan at his game. When God told me that we were to write a book for blended families, my husband laughed with me, because we have been throughly beaten, defeated, whipped, torchered and brutalized by Mr. Satan. We are the two most uncompatable people ever to become one in a marriage. We agree on two things, no make that three. 1) We Love God and his blessed son Jesus Christ our Savior. 2) We love our children. They bring us the greatest Joy. and 3) We love sex. (But who can find the time or energy and a place to escape with all those kids around.) But frankly my dear, that is it! We are uncompatable in all other area. Craig is maticulous and I'm scattered brain, and prefer being that way cause I am Care free, wind blown, barefoot kind of a girl. I am boustrous, Craig is quiet. I could go on and on but you get the picture. We have all the valid grounds for divorce and we have both been divorced before. We have used every excuse thankable to justify getting out of this marriage! Both of us thought we were justified to end our first marriage, because we were the most righteous spouse. However our first marriage was a lot easier, and our ex-spouses were much more compatable with us. Our children had a lot less problems too. I had 5 children and Craig had 3. Now we have 2 from our marriage. O.K., so God can use our battles to help other couples and their families. Some day God is going to help us write a book, you know when we cross to the other side. When we live in Perfect Peace & Harmony as a family. That same week I shouted "I Hate You", and Craig said "If you tell me that you hate me one more time I'm divorcing you because I have people who love me." And I was silenced, because Craig is the most wonderful loving, Godly man a wife could dream to have. Satan just continues to attach on to us, and attack us in every direction he can. And in a large blended families there are many strongholds that make it real easy for him to attack. Once I realized that we finally found the right path to get to that Peaceful valley God has planned for us and I started writing our book, we were attacked by satan in the most devostating crushing possible way. My husband was being attacked by a Jezebel Spirit at work, and our marriage and family was being tormented in a devastating demonic storm. My only refuge was to draw closer to my father in heaven, and to develope a intimate relationship with God as my Daddy. As I drew closer to God, he revealed revolutional knowledge to me on how Christian women can fight for their Christian husbands in the spiritual realm, and when the battle is over, become a stronger Christian, have a much stronger marriage and be blessed with your husband walking in the powerful annointing of God. I could not have won this battle on my own, nor could I have been able to forgive without the presistance of my Lord Jesus Christ reminding me that it was His blood sacrifice that covers ALL sins. It was the Total Love of my Father and His son, my Lord, Jesus Christ that sustained me during my deepest hurts, and my victory is due to my God honors the Christian Wife who draws close to Him for strength and knowledge, and prays for her husband always and forever. This book has biblical principals that will strength any marriage, and help you walk closer to God to understand his wonderful name "ABBA".
