Robin had the opportunity to go a layer deeper in our cultural understanding yesterday. One lady she has mentored had developed what we call in our house a “sour grapes” attitude toward others. She was able to go "in love" to her friend who was guilty of this and “call” her on it. We must say that she felt like walking on thin ice because of the unknown especially confronting in another culture. This culture, like many others, would rather just cover it up and pretend that an offense never happened. But that is not what we are called to do says Matthew 18.
We knew that a wrong attitude by her friend could turn to bitterness, but with God’s grace the lady admitted to a critical spirit and thus things were restored– Praise God!
