Wednesday, May 28, 2014 "Accountability to one Another"

My brothers, if anyone among you wanders from the truth and someone brings him back, let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from his wandering will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins. James 5:19-20

It is hard when we are faced with a situation where we need to address someone about something but don't quite know how to say it. I have learned not to speak when I am upset or angry but only when I am of sound mind and spirit. I have learned to take everything to the cross first and ask the Lord to help me with my words and He always does. The Bible tells us we are accountable to one another. It does not give us license to judge, criticize or scorn, it means we are to be upfront and honest with one another. When we come from a loving heart and loving intent, we should be able to communicate with one another and resolve all matters. So today I ask the Lord to guide me and protect my relationships. May my heart remain pure and may my words always be spoken in love.   

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. Matthew 5:9
