Romans 12 tells us to rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep. Sometimes we have to do them both at the same time.
Everyone who has experienced loss knows that special days and holidays bring a mixed bag of emotions. It definitely works that way in stepfamilies, too. If your family was fractured by divorce some might rejoice over new family members while others weep over being separated from someone they love. In order to cope you need to go with the flow and allow some people to be happy while others are sad. This holiday season rejoicing and weeping together might be the best gift you can give or receive.
