       It’s a sad day when people who don’t necessarily identify as Christian put to shame those of us who do. It’s sad for us when they are doing more, when they really are fulfilling James commandment here more than we are. Really, it comes down to this prayer: “God, save us from being self-righteous. Save us from those who say they do good. Save us from those who criticize the ones who are actually doing good. Help us to be like them.” Yes, I have actually prayed that God helped me to be like a person I know who has practiced sin, but actually showed more care for the needs of others than I had. Let us be careful, fellow Christ-followers. Let us be sure that our hearts are in the right place. Let us be the ones who’s religion is real, genuine, caring, and loving, and not the one’s who are among the worthless, the pretenders, the criticizers, and the wannabes. Let us be unstained from that which is in us, that evil lurking inside of us, which finds its origin, its happiness in the world. Let us actually be like Jesus.
