There is only One "one-size-fits-all" (though that's a clumsy way to say it in this context): Our Lord Jesus Christ, in Whom we live and move and have our being. Put your faith and trust in Him alone -- not in your or my or some other person's moral, finite judgment -- then leave the rest to Him.
He is Truth, and He is Love. Ultimately, the two are inseparable....
Thank you for writing, dear brother in Christ -- even if you sound a tad exasperated over my "naggings".... Sorry; I'll just shut up for now.
Peace be with you!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
NO! NO!
NEVER SHUT UP in my direction.
I covet any ‘naggings’ or anything else you care to exhort me with or even just toss my way ‘for effect.’
I greatly respect you and your wise sayings and even your pontificating burps in your sleep.
Please avoid hesitating in my direction! LOL
Just be aware that I try to take all inputs to Daddy for His suggested disposition and application!

As John and Paula Sandford wrote in
TRANSFORMATION OF THE INNER MAN . . .
Truth without love is brutality;
Love without truth is useless [or worse] sentimentality.
The application of Christ’s standard in each of our lives . . . in each of our contexts and sets of contingencies . . . takes
brokenness before The Lord as well as moment by moment staying full up of Holy Spirit.
imho, of course.
Thank you so much for sharing your insights!
