I agree with your sentiments. When this brother returned to church for the first time, we hugged and cried for a good bit together. I wish I could say that he is still faithfully living for the Lord. And no, I actually enjoyed the break from my SI addiction. Great to hear from you, Matt. I agree with your sentiments.

Lately God has really impressed upon my heart a deeper understanding of the depravity of all men, especially in regards to myself. The more I look at God, the more I see how bad I am. This, of course, is a very humbling experience that strips away any pride I may have had. I think that it is so important to approach struggling brothers in humility and gentleness, boasting only in Christ and what he did for us on the Cross. This also effects the way we view the lost - we should pity them rather than condemn them. Thanks for your thoughtful post. P.S. - hope Sharper Iron withdrawl didn't get you too down! :) Hey Brian,
Great post. Lately God has really impressed upon my heart a deeper understanding of the depravity of all men, especially in regards to myself. The more I look at God, the more I see how bad I am.

Thanks for your thoughtful post.

P.S. – hope Sharper Iron withdrawl didn’t get you too down! :)
