Every one of us knows what it feels like to love people who don't always love us back.
Some of the deepest wounds don't come from strangers — they come from kinfolk.
People who share our blood but not our values.
People who take our time, drain our peace, and expect access without accountability.
The Bible does not hide this reality.
It speaks honestly about takers, users, manipulators, and relatives who bring strife instead of peace.
Today's message is not about bitterness.
It's about clarity, wisdom, and boundaries that honor God.
