| Loving Flawed People |

Please remember this:
We add value or take away value from a person simply by the way we treat them or talk about them. Did Jesus' actions make this woman more valuable? Did His actions towards here change the way at least some people will treat her? Her situation before standing in front of Jesus with her whole life laid bare and at His mercy was hopeless and lost. Just like every one of us. Just being with Jesus made us better people, and brought others around us that call us Brothers and Sisters in the Body of Christ.
Look around, is there someone you live around, work with or know that no one seems to like? Someone that seems to be so flawed that no one wants to be around them? Irritating, obnoxious, rude, and completely unlikeable? Pray for them and represent Jesus to them. Hey, you and I weren't a bundle of joy at one time either. Right? Amen.
"If you know these things, you are blessed if
you do them." John 13:17
God bless you Saints!
