I was talking to someone recently and we were talking about how loving God is and how unloving most of His children are. They said something that is simple yet profound 'We spend too much time talking about things we shouldn't and fail to talk about the things we should'.

Isn't that the case all too often? We should be sharing God's love to those around us, we should be telling them of God ability to forgive them of their sins. But instead we talk about what was on TV last night or what someone else is wearing or even worse bringing up the past that for all we know God may have forgiven them for.

Why are we so fascinated with the bad that others have done? It is because from a human perspective that it makes us feel better to know that others may have done something worse than we have? If so, shame on us!

The Bible tells us we are to lift up our brothers and sisters, not fight to find ways to tear them down. I'm firmly convinced the answer to to this situation is praying and reading God's word more. Talk to Him and allow Him to talk to us through His Word.

There are people all around us going to hell but we had rather condemn our brothers that rush to try to safe them. Lord, pray that today and always we will seek to show others Your love, mercy and grace in all we do!
