Depart from evil then look out! Isaiah 59:50

This is the way it works for me. God will bless with some special blessings then a while later BAM BAM BAM!

Gut punched from several different unrelated angles. Always a family member.

Ive learned to brace myself. And not to retaliate or go into some defense tactic. Just leads to a back and forth fracas. 

Jesus said if we are to share in His glory, we are to share in His sufferings.  

This takes a lot of hard work. 

Going to a brother in the Lord that you have a problem with is somewhat a different deal. I believe.

It’s hard when our family members either fight with us or worse, not saved.

It can be. Family are your own kin, and they have known for a lot longer. It doesn't necessarily make for easier resolutions, however.

I was curious about your Bible verse, but I can't find an Isaiah 59:50 in my Bible.

There are going to be tribulations in our lives in this world. You give them to God.

Sometimes God gives us a thorn in the side to keep us humble.

I had to largely separate myself from family after I first got born again to keep from them derailing my faith. 

Things got better over time, but even then we never developed the closeness we had before I Got saved. I think the Principle that "He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me" can apply here somewhat. You have to make a choice as to whether you are going to go full on with God or not.

Or allows it, as the case may be.
