People are messy and so church is, and should be. Life is hard especially for you. We are called to sacrifice for his cause, and if we lie to people and act like we are perfect we are doing a complete disservice to everyone including Jesus.
The moment anything becomes more important than living and sharing an authentic faith, is where any church can count me out.
Stop trying to tell people how to live their life, like you can understand the difficulties they are going through. It does more harm than good.
We need to realize that God can and does share and speak to other people other than just us.
Our job is to lead people to that place, where they can make the decision, where they can live out the faith they are building with their God.
I believe that only through a true and authentic INDIVIDUAL faith, can the church and community of God grow together, wider, stronger, and deeper.
We are a needed part of God's ministry, but it's not about us.
It is not a ladder to climb.
Amen! Thanks for this!
