Identify the Weak

We need to be savvy at identifying the “weak” among us.  They can be people that are around us every day at work.  We need to do this so that we can do GOOD, and restore them, and build them up. There are those who are very good at identifying the weak.  They are called wolves.  They have a unique ability to pick out the weak and frail and then they prey on them.  They are bent on destruction, manipulation, and seek to take advantage of those who are weak. We, on the other hand, need to be equally cunning at identifying the weak and frail, however, we need to bring them to Christ and be men and women of honor and integrity.  Restore them to strength so that they will not fall to wolves or heresy.  To often in my life, I have learned about someone that I failed to identify as “weak”, and a wolf spotted this before me and beat me to the opportunity.  They did harm; sometimes physically and/or emotionally, and sometimes leading them to a heretic church or religion.  I am afraid that this happens far too often in our midst.  Be wise as serpents and as gentle as doves, my brothers, in identifying the weak; and restore them.
