Break Through

I had a break through moment yesterday.  Many of you have heard my prayer requests for a better relationship with my brother. Things over the past couple years have gotten better.

We learned how to be ok when we’re around one another.  Which was no small thing in and of itself.

Lately I felt that I should call him and apologize.  I didn’t really want to, I have put it off for a while.  But yesterday, I knew I couldn’t put it off any longer.  So, I called him up and out of the blue…told him that it may sound crazy, but I was sorry. 

We talked briefly, but he too had felt recently that he needed to apologize to me and he did and he thanked me for being willing to call him, that he knew it wasn’t easy.  I am so glad that I have had so many people praying with me all these years and that I didn’t rush or try to push our relationship to getting better before it was God’s timing.  I wish things could have been better sooner, but I’m glad that he and I were on the same page and that God was in it.

I hope and pray for anyone reading this that if you have a difficult relationship that you realize that God does care about you and it.  He also cares about the other person too.  God is love and that is what he wants for us.
