Dealing with difficult people as a christian can be very challenging. However,The Bible admonishes every believer ,young or old to love and be at peace with all men. But we all know one or two people that make loving them a challenge.   These “difficult people” intentionally overstep their boundaries, make fun of your personal principles and disrespect you in so many ways.

We live in a world where for many the term “father” denotes a dictator. He is a male figure who gives orders at home and is hardly around. He doesn’t know much about his kids, and always forgets their birthdays or important events. Many Christian youths who grew up around such a male figure may find it difficult to believe that God is a loving Father. One very distinctive nature of God is His fatherhood. ( Abba ). Throughout scripture, I see countless references to God as Father. Jesus referred to Him as Father. However, this was an issue back then and the religious people saw it as blasphemy ..read more
