And my home and church is very Christ-filled ... which is as it should be. We love each other ... we comfort one another ... we encourage each other.
Highway or the mall, or the feeding frenzy at a Christmas dinner, or sport events, you name it. Sure, there are acts of kindness, as Christ comes through for a fleeting second, only long enough for someone to flip you off or cut you off.
My house is full of icons. I think of Him often during the day. But how much time do I spend with him on a daily basis as opposed to how much I should be? There is nothing more dangerous than spiritual contentment.
How many people devote but one our on a Sunday to God, and how many people actually go to church every Sunday? Individual acts of kindness could be done for many reasons, not necessarily in the name of God.
Do people in church whose children are disruptive think of their fellow men as their little angels pierce everyone's ears and parents just look at them...music to their ears. I see filth and sin everywhere. I see double standards and hypocrisy all around me and in me.
Maybe you are holier than others. Funny thing is, those who are truly holy wouldn't know it.

I don't claim to be holy.
But God has blessed me to see His work in myself ... and others.
Yes ... there are a lot of negatives which run through our lives ... but God is still working.
