Shalom God,
I need some guidance. My two older children are at each others' throats. There is always something that one does to the other that sets off the fireworks. I take it from the stories You've taught us about siblings in the Torah that it isn't suppose to be easy. And as a brother myself I remember my share of torture both as an inflicter and a receiver.
I just wish that I could help them see how precious they both are and how much they have to offer each other. The selfish piece of me wants them to love each other as much as I do.
I'll look again at Your stories of Cain and Abel, Jacob and Esau, Rachel and Leah and Joseph and his brothers. Perhaps You have hidden some wisdom in these stories that can help me help my children.
It's good to know that when I'm at a loss, I can turn to You, the Parent of all humanity for guidance. Thanks for being there for me and thank You for watching over my girls.
Laila Tov,
David
