Help, I'm a loser!
Today I saw a woman wearing hickeys on her neck like precious jewels.
I saw a dad smoking up with his teenaged son.
I saw an elderly man picking flowers in a public park.
I saw a sandwich artist prepare someone's food without washing his hands.
Loser.
Red and yellow, black and white, all are precious in God's sight? Really?!
[Selah.]
How responsible are we, as individuals, to learn? Or to break free from destructive patterns? What if we're just dumb. What if we can't see them? Is it someone else's responsibility to point them out?
And, if so, at what level of relationship is this permitted? Do people need to get real close before they can rightfully point out the faults of others? Or are we allowed to fault-find at all?
And what exactly is the difference between "helping" someone "change their ways" and "become a better person" vs. "judging not lest we be judged?"
Loser.

"Everything is permissible" — but not everything is beneficial. "Everything is permissible" — but not everything is constructive.Maybe I'M a loser because of things I do!
Loser.

What do you need help with ???
I can help... I'm great at pointing out faults that will open your eyes to make you a better person LOL
That's easy ...
what best is this though ...
Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms. I Peter 4
