How do you deal with the bitter Christian; one who you believe does indeed love the Lord with all their heart, but has such a profound and visible bitter streak?
In this particular case, the Christian referring to is seeking donations (made directly to a legitimate Christian organization), where once she raises a specific amount, can be a full time employee of this organization.
While I "feel" this is a worthy organization, I pray on nearly everything, including this. That said, her bitterness about anyone with money (she firmly believes honest people can't get ahead and the proof of someone's dishonesty is apparent by how financially successful they are. You can't make this stuff up!), is such turn off for me, it's difficult to put into words.
How do I deal with this attitude in the future, AND am I simply not hearing the Lord speak to me about supporting her financially in this endeavor due to her attitude and my feelings about it, or could the Lord's silence be His way of saying bless another organization.
Thank you in advance for any input.
