When we read about the parable of the good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37) we tend to focus more on this good Samaritan and aspire to be like him. But unfortunately, most of us are worse than the priest or the Levite who left the man to die, we  are the robbers who beat up this man. We are the robbers beating our fellow Christian and leaving them in the cold to die. We strip them off with our words and judging them as we play God. Regarding them as of lesser spiritual standards (adopting the rats cockroaches and people like us concept). Someone said the church army is the only institution that kills its wounded soldiers. Are we the kind of Christians who kill our wounded soldiers, leave them to die in the wilderness, or do we pick them up, cover them and walk with them? Are we too ashamed to be associated with our struggling Christians. Are we ready to go to their level, understand them and walk with them? God is asking us to show care and love to our wounded brothers. We are called to be shepherds to provide care and support. To care for those life is pushing out of the road, not to kill what is remaining of them. How can we claim to love God whom we have never seen and fail to love those in our midst?

DON’T JUDGE SOMEONE JUST BECAUSE THEY SIN DIFFERENTLY, DON’T JUDGE SOMEONE WHO FAILS A TEST YOU YOURSELF HAVE YET TO PASS. DON’T JUDGE SOMEONE UNTILL YOU’VE CRAWLED INTO HIS SKIN AND WALKED AROUND A BIT. DON’T JUDGE SOMEONE UNTILL YOU KNOW THEIR CONVERSATION WITH GOD IN THE CLOSET
