We may at times feel the need to approach a fellow believer who has offended us. First, though, we do well to ask ourselves such questions as: 'Do I have enough facts?' (Proverbs 18:13) 'Could it be that the offense was not intentional?' (Ecclesiastes 7:20) 'Have i ever made a similar mistake?' (Ecclesiastes 7:21, 22) 'By approaching the person, will I create a bigger issue than the one I am trying to resolve? (Read Proverbs 26:20.) When we take time to consider such questions, we may conclude that our love for our brother can move us simply to overlook the offense.
As a group, Jehovah's Witnesses are proving to be Jesus' true disciples. We individually prove that we are real followers of Jesus when we show unselfish love toward our brothers and sisters despite their imperfections. In the process, we may help others to recognize the true religion and to join us in worshipping Jehovah, the God of love. Let us be determined to continue demonstrating the love that identifies true Christians.
