it’s god’s will
the “ultimate manipulative phrase” that self-centered/dictatorial people use to try to pressuringly persuade others to acquiesce to their wishes, usually with purely selfish intentions, and often with disastrous results. alternatively phrased with equally false/deceitful statements such as “well, i prayed about it, and god told me that this was what you should do” or “well, if you really love god and are a true christian, you would do this”, it is generally designed merely to guilt-trip someone into performing an unreasonable/dangerous/potentially-injurious action which usually ends up merely benefiting the requester, while laying excessive burden/risk on the reluctant provider.
teenage daughter: i don’t like this man; i don’t want to marry him. he’s way too old for me, and i have glimpsed his “other side” a few times, and it ain’t pretty. i’m too young to think about stuff like that yet, anyway — i want to enjoy the social dating scene first, and meet lots of nice guys before i choose a permanent spouse.
parent: well, your father and i prayed about it, and it’s god’s will that you marry this man.
teenage daughter: yeah, right — –sure– you did! just like your other relatives did when they got married — and look what miserable relationships a lot of them have now! they’re locked into unhappy marriages that they can’t get out of because –god– wouldn’t approve of a divorce from one of his -sacred unions-!! nice try, mom — no thanks!
