Rusty containers

Just a few days ago Chad reminded me not to fall into the trap of being critical of other Christians. Just today, I realized this is a very very hard thing to do...

Francis Collins has said it right, we Christians are just rusty containers. No wonder non-believers turn away. It's not the pure water of Christianity inside the container that's the problem. People are just complicated. People who label themselves 'Christians' yet live like the world are sometimes even more complicated.

Jesus, teach me how to handle people... Teach me how to live like You... How to be pure, yet not naive.
