So bear with me on this:

This is the KJV: "Think not that I am come to send peace on earth:  I came not to send peace, but a sword.  For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.  And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.  He that loveth  father or mother more than me is not worthy of me:  and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.  And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.  He that findeth his life shall lose it:  and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it."

I can certainly relate to what this scripture is talking about.  All of my priorities/motivations were in the wrong direction and this is one factor that led to my wife wanting a separation.  Now I am trusting Abba to bring about healing, as long as it is his will.
