The Fear Factor (Proverbs 6)

What if I told you that couples in blended families have a particular vulnerability that couples in first marriages don’t have. Would you want to know what it is?
Stepfamilies have an Achilles heel that undercuts their ability to love and trust. For someone who has been through one divorce, the fear of another or worrying about your spouse’s commitment predicts with 93% accuracy whether you have a strong, stable marriage or a fragile, unhappy one. Proverbs 6 says jealousy arouses a spouse’s anger when fear and worry have their way. If you’re in a blended family, find ways to cast out fear or it may sabotage trust and steal your ability to serve your mate.
