Blood or Faith?
What matter the most? Is it your kin or your God? Can you gave up the all the things you can inherit from your parents? Can you defy your parents and go for your faith? Lastly would you able to have no regret on choosing your faith rather than your blood?
My grandparents came from a economic stable families, specially my grandmother, they are not rich in money but in land, My grandfather is a middle classman, so their living is stable even though it is still hard. When My grandparents married each other their early married life was okay for them and their both families but when my grandparents started to go for their faith, they are going to be part of Church of Christ  (Iglesia ni Cristo), things started to stirred up.
Problems, adversities, and many other more come to our grandparents, but they faced it along with their fate in God, they put their trust and faith to God that’s why they able to face those adversities. One of those adversities was, My Grandparents would not be the children of their parent, (My Great Grandparents) and they would not inherit anything from them.
That was a very heavy burden and problem for my Grandparents, because having a inheritance form your parents back in the day was very important because of the hard life back in the day and it is also part of the tradition that is a must. Guess what? My Grandparents did not take any care for this but instead they put their trust and faith to God more and they work hard to buy a land and a house that they would gave to their children’s. More importantly our grandparents gave us what is more important to inherit, Faith in God. In true  God.  They put their faith in God that’s why they able to battle those adversities even though they are forsaken by their parents.
Kin is kin, but when God test your faith for him and guide you towards him, kin would always be kin, but more importantly God will always be God and you must obey him. As my Grandparents sow the seeds of their faith we the grandchildren’s become the fruits of that faith as time goes by those fruit will create seeds that will continue the faith that our grandparents sow for us.
