Who do you trust more? Whatever you answer is, Is that the way it should be or just the way it is?

I depend more on my blood family then my born again family. And yes some of my blood family is in my born again family but I know for a fact that one of my BIGGEST supporters is not a born again. Matter of fact they would be some of the first people I would call upon to help me. And you know why I would call...Because I know they would be there without question!
I know that may be backwards to some but the truth is the truth!

My blood family comes first. Right or wrong...It doesn't matter to me. Like SolidRock mentioned, if ever in a tight situation, born again or not, I know my family will "Ride or Die" for me. Truth be told if they don't it's going to be a SERIOUS problem. If my church family left me hanging I would feel some kind of way, but my blood family would definitely feel the wrath of the Webb!

Well, I can truly say that my born family will come first. I have some born again family that will no doubt support me and be there for me. The key word “some”. BUT I know for a fact that one side of my family (WEBB) there is no doubt that ALL of them will be there for me. That is something that I am truly thankful and blessed to have, and that is a family that really sticks together no matter what. We even incorporate other families as our family and look out for them (Uncle Chan! -I miss u!). Although we may be small in number we have enormous love for each other. I have been let down by several times by my “born again family” but I can’t say that I have ever been let down by my blood family and that is a blessing. Is it right or wrong…..I say it’s all good.

My blood family are the ONLY people that I ALLOW to pass judgment on me. For example if I am doing something wrong I know my family will correct me and talk junk about me, but all of us will burn a person up if they speak about me who ARE NOT FAMILY. I wish a person would! I have people like "2inch blade" who will mess you up. I have accepted people in my family who the outside world would say are not my family.
I feel my family is a unique organism. They accept people for who they are. We have difference but when the rubber meets the road we are always on one accord. "Churches" should and need to learn this principle.
