And when I mess up? … Help is available


Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount is full of sound advice – “Don’t judge others, or you’ll be judged.  Don’t be blind to your own faults.”  Then there’s the Golden Rule.  We’ve heard it all a thousand times. But what if I do judge or criticize or mistreat others?  What then? Jesus anticipates these fears and failings by telling us to ask for help. You’re not all good, he says, but even you know how to treat your children with kindness.  Kindness is at the heart of Creation. We may disagree about how this happened, but we know we can trust kindness.
