What you are exposed to dictates how you act. Think about the first time you did something or went somewhere, it was a different experience, maybe good or bad, but definitely different. If you are exposed to negative things then your outlook is going to be negative. My mission is to expose you to a blended family that is Blended 4 a Purpose and prayerfully you will discover how yours is Blended 4 a Purpose. Society has put a bad image of blended families, baby mama's & baby daddy's, stepchildren & step parents. We continue to support this negative image by supporting the songs, TV shows, and encouraging disrespect & immaturity! I'm not perfect and I will admit that there was a time that I talked about and acted nasty to members of my blended family. This weekend me and my children's other mother worked out together and on the way home we were talking about marriage and ugly things that unfortunately can happen in a marriage. As she was telling me a story about a lady in her group, I said that was my story. I had been through some of the things she was talking about and not only that, some by her. As we continued to talk she said that she didn't feel that she had done some of the things she was sharing with me about but she apologized for any wrong doing she has ever done to me! WOW!!! I never would have imagined that our lives would turn out like this. As I thought about it, I don't know why I am amazed because I serve an amazing God! I prayed for my blended family but my prayers were selfish and many times I didn't understand what God was doing and truthfully I was mad at God but what God has done has exceeded my expectations! God's plan was for me to expose you to something different! Yeah I know when people see me and my children's other mother at events together, planning things together, talking and sharing our struggles and issues they think its weird. I want you to look and think past the weirdness, pass your uncomfortableness, maybe why you think it's so weird because there is still anger and hatred in your heart and us getting along reminds you of how wrong you are! Whatever the case is.... Here we are to continue to expose you to something different!!
