When does sharing thoughts become a form of complaint?
The naivety played up again. A different form. One that took the form of complaint in the disguise of a sharing.
You din read wrongly. A sharing misdiagnosed as a complaint.
Yup I really aren't convicted to wearing a 'modest' wedding dress. And I really wanted to use a 'secular pop music' as a processional. So I indiscreetly bared my thoughts and heart out to people whom I assumed would comprehend the entire background to this sharing.
But I was wrong. Really wrong.
I failed to recognise this concept of the 'appearance of evil'. I forgot that not everyone has the same belief, not everyone is grounded in Him, not everyone understands why I 'subjected' myself to such.
And so, this is really difficult for me to declare publicly, but, I have sinned, big time.
The one thing I have always guarded so strongly against, being a bad testimony, I have become one.
James 1:26 "If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain"
I shot myself in the foot. Big time.
I am exactly like the person described by James.
Lord, have mercy on me for my sin... :(
