I agree. Don't take issue with people but help them to take ownership of their grief. Grief embraced passes quickly but grief held onto can be very harmful and last far longer then it should. Allow God's love to flow through you into the lives of those grieving.

The link covered in those verses is that Christians are not free to do what is not a sin for them if what they do harms their witness or causes someone weaker to sin. It is a sin for a Christian to do a good work if that is not a work which is part of God's plan for that person. Remember how...

Talk with your employer. Good professional baseball pitchers try to limit the damage when they are in trouble. Delay could be even more costly to your employer. He may have means of limiting the damage if you don't wait too long. The Bible teachers transparency. Admitting human mistakes is...

excellent reply.

Any kind of unforgiveness is a sin and hinders your relationship with God and your Christian witness and may cause emotional problems.

You are struggling because you are using your own resources instead of Jesus and His resources. Pray and tell God that the only way you can resist those thoughts is if He gives you the victory.

God always gives an answer. It is yes, no, or wait. We don't always like the answer He gives. God sees the big picture and will always give the very best answer in His perfect timing.

God is right. The Bible is God's Word. He has a plan for your life. Your job is to follow His plan for your life, not His plan for anyone else. Every believer has a God-given role. Let God take care of the big picture.
