Let the Words of my Mouth

a Friend got hurt last night. Even though i have not known this friend long, it still pains me to see that he got hurt. It hurts even worse knowing he was hurt by people from church. He hasnt been saved very long, and we have all known him only for 8 weeks. Sure theres bound to be mistakes on all parties. But that goes without saying that when we are leading someone down the path to Christ, or discipling them, we arent to be brash, and hard, and full of religous lingo that they cant understand. Ya tell them that thier mistakes are wrong, but dont judge them for it. Leave the Judging to God. Better yet, dont try to correct the person, when you yourself are known for acting one way in church, and then another way in life. WE are to LIVE our LIVES 24-7-365 for Christ, as Christ would have us live. And that means if someone is having a rough day, or night, and sinning, but yet you are sinning also,, DO NOT CORRECT THEM TILL YOU CORRECT YOURSELF.
now i dont know all that happend, but i know that major damage has been done to my friend. and he is hurting so deeply old habits are returning. Ya he made mistakes, but you know what, we knew this going into this thing, that he wasnt perfect, and could have troubles. So why then did we accept him. if we are only going to tear him down. ----------------------------------- Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable unto you Lord.
