Loving versus being right

A topic that has been close to my heart lately is how to love people in a world that is so constantly divided, constantly at war with each other.  Black versus white.  Rich versus poor.  Right versus left.  Toilet paper over versus under.  Everyone has something to prove, to make sure the world knows what is the "right" way to live (clearly over).  I can find any article and post it on social media that obviously proves that my way of thinking is the right way.

But where is the love?

Lets look at Jesus.  How he interacted with people around Him. I am by no means a Bible expert but I don't recall Him preaching at people too often that didn't want to be preached at. In fact, Zaccheus, by all Jewish standards was a horrible man.  And Jesus said- let's go eat! Niccodemus?  He desired to know more so interviewed Jesus.  When Jesus attempted to go off in solitude? People followed him.  Asked Him to teach more.  And Jesus loved them, so He did.

My job as a Christian is not to decide who is right and who is wrong.  Jesus is much more than that.  If people have questions about my beliefs I would love to talk and share.  My job is to love.  As Christians we spend so much time pointing out what people are doing wrong that all we are doing is driving people away from God.  I wish we could all stop throwing stones and realize that if we truly loved like God loved us, we could pull so many more people toward the God that gives more grace than we will ever deserve.
