Bloom Where You Are Planted

Late night thoughts....At what point does the church settle for covering of sin and making things appear "right," instead of addressing the underLYING problems. If we set out to make a person feel better about themselves (or have the mentality of "at least they aren't doing this or that anymore) without addressing the heart of the matter, is that not doing much worse? Do we want to set each other up to be obedient to God's word, or do we settle for quick fixes that lead to further brokenness down the road? Sometimes truth hurts. Are we willing to put relationships on the line by speaking truth to each other? Are we willing to accept truth?
