There is always a catch...

You can focus on the wickedness or you can focus on the good. Choose to focus on the good in your sister and your brother and you just might find it. We are always getting in each others' way. Even in a big house with alot of room. We are always getting in each others' way. The only alternative is not to belong to and with each other. Love is learning what to do about when you get in your brother or your sisters way. We tend to focus on ourselves being offended and not on the offence which we, inevitably are. Forgiveness and repentance are daily portions in the large family. Cleaning up after one another is a regular portion of life in the big family. That is why it is difficult for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God and impossible, because he thinks he cleans up his own messes. If you are not sick, you don't need a physician. We are always making one another sick. Either you die of the sickness or you seek God for healing.
How can you love God who you don't see and hate your brother who you do see?
I can't imagine because, even the people who I love with my heart make me sick sometimes. God Help!
