Be Patient With The Weak

“We then who are strong
ought to bear with the scruples of the weak,
and not to please ourselves.”
Romans 15:1

Be patient with people. Be patient with those who are weak. Be patient with those who are immature. Truly lend them an ear, fully-listen to them, for they are equally valuable in the heart of the Lord, they too are made in the image of God. Ask God to let you see the Lord in them.

Pay close attention to all, seeking what personality, what gifts, what talents they have, for God has given these to all. Focus on the perhaps hidden gems he has placed within them. You might be surprised.

vs 7:
“Therefore receive one another,
just as Christ also received us,
to the glory of God.”

When you find yourself annoyed with the weak, remember the condescension of the Lord himself who is so much greater than us, yet he receives us and listens to us constantly.

Love him …by loving them.
