“He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of Me. And He who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of me. And He who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of me. He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for my sake will find it” Mathew 10: 37-39.

            I made a commitment

            Vowed to follow and serve

            I made a commitment

            Vowed to pursue and hail

            All my faith on I AM.

 

            My family forsook me

            Friends scorned me

            lost all that I knew

            A country I called mine

            A people I identified with

            All that was familiar.

 

            In tears and in agony

            I sought to understand

            Seeking His face

And He answered

“For your faithfulness

            I have doubly honored,

            My blessings pursue you

            My peace, always with you!”

    I think that your ties may not be strong enough to god. Please stay in the word. I am praying for you. My mother once said if you have nothing nice to say say nothing. lol
