I need counsel concerning my mother-in-l

Please I need help, counsel when it comes to my mother-in-law...

She is demanding, and she is more of a dictator, then a wife and mother, and
Mother-in-law :coocoo: She couldn't take that my husband told her that his brother's
Kids needed correction or they do what they want. She told him he was not
Perfect and he did one thing, that when I heard it, didn't sound like it was by
Intention... But she made it sound so bad. And then because my granny died
Some days ago, and I want him on the funeral she didn't want him to have a
Day off but to talk to a colleague about changing working periods. It was OK
For him to have a day off when a relative within his family died :huh:
I'd appreciate that my brother-in-law and their kids won't come
The same time we are there with our son, and pray they will grow to be well-
Mannered and courteous. Their sons are uncontrollable and are allowed to to
What they want. There's no peace when they are there. Please pray that our
Son will be courteous, and well-mannered. Pray that my in-laws won't try to
Raise him, or spoil our efforts to bringing him up but leave that to us. The
Same with my parents. And please, pray that the relation mother and
Daughter-in-law will be better. Because it's not good. I feel like I have to tip-
Toe around her. I don't mean to sound judging but this is the truth...Thank you and God bless you!
 
Dear Sister I am deeply sorry for what you and your family are passing through, but then as children of God we have obligation to still love even to those who did wrong to us.

how wide, how long, how high, and how deep is Christ Love. hmmm

Ephesians 3:18-21 (Amplified Bible)
18That you may have the power and be strong to apprehend and grasp with all the saints [God's devoted people, the experience of that love] what is the breadth and length and height and depth [of it];
19[That you may really come] to know [practically, [a]through experience for yourselves] the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge [without experience]; that you may be filled [through all your being] [c]unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and [d]become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]!
20Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams]--
21To Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Amen (so be it).

Father, I pray for your strength and power of your presence upon my sister Jesus believer. I also pray to change the hearts of her family.

In Jesus name

Amen

Greetings Jesus believer,

You might have seen and even heard the Scripture,

I can do all things through Christ which strengeneth me Philippians 4:13

May encourage you sister in Christ, to take hold of this truth.

You have before you a task which involves trusting in the Lord and seeing as you go, one day at a time, that not only will He strengthen you, but the task itself will strengthen you. Remember too that the fruit can only ripen with heat and time, and I can see that as you endure this situation, prayerfully and relying upon the Lord for strength and mercy and grace, you will be able to look back and thank the Lord for bringing you to this place for His glory to shine in you. So begin giving thanks even now for things just as they are, trusting the Lord to do His will in you and others around you.

If you look a few verses before, in Philippians 4:4-9, you will see a beautiful Scripture of advice, for the Lord has not quickened us to leave us, but provides all that we will ever need and even more, certainly much more than we can ever think or ask for, and as His child, He will not desert you in this time, but as you draw near to Him daily, taking up your cross to follow Him where He bids you go, you will be blessed beyond your ability to ask.
Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice.
Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand.
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
Phillipians 4:4-9

Bless you ....><>

Trust also your son to Him, and be the Christian example of all Christ would have you be for your son to see Christ Jesus in you ....><>
