Do we concern ourselves too much with the state of the world around us? Do we judge our faith, not on the righteousness that we come to know, but on the impact we perceive we are having on the society and church we live in? If we do that, then we are setting ourselves up for depression, and for viewing ourselves as being deficient... failures. So, what are we to do? How can we avoid this pitfall? We are to become like Jesus.
