don't be hatin'

Romans 14

Verse 1 "Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don't see things the way you do. And don't jump all over them every time they do or say something you don't agree with—even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department. Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently."

Verse 13 "Forget about deciding what's right for each other. Here's what you need to be concerned about: that you don't get in the way of someone else, making life more difficult than it already is."

Verse 19 "So let's agree to use all our energy in getting along with each other. Help others with encouraging words; don't drag them down by finding fault."

- good stuff right up in here. we can't assume that we know what God's doing in someone's life. just love. when we judge someone it's as if we're saying we know better how they should act, dress or talk. we have no idea. i'm talking to me. it's a struggle to stay silent when everything in me tells my stubborn heart that i'm right and they're wrong. but God's working in all of our lives. so let's let God do His job. He knows what He's doing. -
