How can I tell my boyfriend and mum that I don't want them to meet each other without hurting anyone's feelings? I have a good reason!?

Jesus knew that many people would face this struggle. He knew many people wishing to follow Him would be met with opposition from their loved ones who do not yet understand, and that it may cause conflict and division with family and friends. You have to know the cost, but be willing to love Jesus and be faithful to Him whatever the cost is, to be a true disciple of His - even if it means hurting the feelings of your loved ones.

Jesus uses hyperbole a lot to get his point across. (Matthew 10:34-39)“Do not think that I have come to bring peace on earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and a man’s foes will be those of his own household.

He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and he who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.

You just have to do it. Some people will have hurt feelings but that can not be avoided. It was that way for me when I changed from being a Protestant to a Catholic 50 years ago but I am not sorry I did that and those people who love you will get over it.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
