Side with God

Name Withheld

My family was fighting. And I was in the middle.

On one side was one family member with one perspective. On the other side was another family member with a very different perspective. It seemed as if the rest of my family members were forming opinions and choosing sides, while I struggled to remain neutral.

I really loved all those involved in this disagreement and didn’t want to ruin any relationships. But how could I stay in the middle forever? Didn’t I need to pick my team and settle things by fighting the battle for my side?
