Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen. And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister.
1 John 4:20-21 NIV
I guess those are some pretty harsh words aren't they? The Bible isn't full of lovey dovey everything. It's full of truth. Sometimes we don't like it. I don't like this one, but that doesn't mean it isn't truth. I've seen way too many family members attack each other. It's very hard to respond to people when you see things that aren't fair, or when they hurt you. But there must be a way.
Either we take God for truth, we take him for granted, or we ignore him all together.
