Stan Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 We must never forget, there are those kinds of 'tags' for many people, if not all people, on this forum. We must support each other, not judge each other, and we must lift each other up in prayer. We all have struggles.

Administrators Tom Wetmore Posted June 4, 2008 Administrators Posted June 4, 2008 Worth the time it takes! I was having one of those days yesterday... Very busy at work... quickly running several errands over lunch break... really not enough time to eat...even to grab it an go eat at my desk... traffic... too many things not enough time... slow lines - retirement village field day at grocery store... etc. Didn't have enough time for a good lunch now, needed to get back to work, but decided to stop at Starbucks... Acquaintance in line ahead said "What are you having? My treat." We ended up sitting down to finish our drinks and ended up talking for an hour. It was clear he just needed someone to listen... and so did I. Take the time...It's worth it. Tom Quote "Absurdity reigns and confusion makes it look good." "Sinless perfection is such a shallow goal." "I love God only as much as the person I love the least." *Forgiveness is always good news. And that is the gospel truth. (And finally, the ideas expressed above are solely my person views and not that of any organization with which I am associated.)

Stan Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 I think most people, if not all, are like that way too often. Sometimes we need to re-red this over and over - - - - 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.
