Acceptance

 I think that sometimes we as Christians get caught up in the 'rules' of being a Christian, instead of focusing on what we are called to do, love others unconditionally. We are called to accept people for who they are and love them despite the things they do or have done that might not line up with our beliefs. Christ's life on earth was all about loving those who may not have followed all the 'rules'. He ate and drank with the tax collectors and prostitutes. He showed love and acceptance to everyone. We as His followers are called to do the same. I am doing my best not to judge, and to be loving and accepting of others no matter where they are in life. Because I need love and acceptance just as much as anyone else.
